When should a comma be used between adjectives

2 answers:

7 0

The comma rule comes down to the difference between two kinds of adjectives: coordinate adjectives and cumulative adjectives. Coordinate adjectives are adjectives in a row that each separately modify the noun that follows (1), as in “heavy, bulky box.” Both “heavy” and “bulky” modify “box.” You can even rearrange the adjectives and say, “bulky, heavy box.”, and ETC.

Natali [406]

Answer: C. genial yet self-interested

Explanation:

A genial person is one who sociable, cheerful and quite friendly. Franklin had this quality as he was easily relatable with according to the narrator. You could have a beer with him, make jokes, discuss business plans and the newest scandals.

Franklin was however self-interested. He was doing the aforementioned things in order to be part of the meritocracy and thus had to balance the pursuit of reputation, wealth, earthly virtues, and spiritual values.

The paragraph infers that Franklin is not alone in this as others in 21st century America relate to this. This shows that people in the contemporary United States are genial yet self-interested.

lora16 [44]

Perhaps sift the mixture, or expose it to a magnet, to separate the steel shavings from the rest of the mixture. Then, boil the remaining sand and salt in water, so the salt will disintegrate and only the sand will be left. Then, you could drain the water into a sifter, so the sand will be caught and seperated from the salt water.

Which text best completes the sentence?

kompoz [17]

Answer:

3. finer than that of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

Explanation:

This is talking about comparatives (like "better", "greater", "worse", etc) and superlatives (like "best", "greatest", "worst", etc).

Remember that whenever we use a comparative or a superlative, we never add the word "more" to it; doing so is redundant and makes the sentence run choppily. So eliminate 2.

Read sentence 1. Grammatically, it's correct; however, if we put it into the sample sentence:

<em>"In my opinion, the art collection of the Louvre in Paris is finer than the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York"</em>

This makes it sound like the art collection of the Louvre is finer than the actual museum in New York, which is probably not the comparison we want to make. Instead, we want to compare the art collection of the Louvre with the art collection of the Met. So eliminate 1.

Thus, the answer is 3, which runs smoothly and makes sense.
