Well they would generally be fed coarse corn meal boiled, which they referred to as mush. What they were fed was enough to sustain grown men and women through their backbreaking labors in the field.

This what by any means considered a luxury meal and they often grew their own crops and stole just to get a good meal. I believe they were treated that way as a means of showing them how minuscule they were, how they were the equivalent of pigs. A way to establish where they stood and where their master stood, a way to oppress and subjugate them.

What are the dependent clause and the transition word in the sentence below? Workers who complained to the owners were fired, pu
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The dependent clause is "were fired, punished, or even killed." The transition word is "were."

Explanation:

A dependent clause is one that depends on a complement so that it is able to convey a coherent and understandable meaning. This is because this type of clause is not able to transmit a complete thought, managing to establish a message alone.

If we look at the sentence shown in the question above, we will see that the clause "Workers who completed to the owners" is able to start and end a thought, being then the independent clause. While the "were fired, punished, or even killed" clause fails to start and end a thought, it is a dependent clause.

The transition word is the one that makes the connection between the two clauses in a sentence. In the sentence shown in the question above, the transition word is "were".
