1. syntax - having to do with word order.

Syntax is the way the words are arranged in a sentence. We use the word syntax when we talk about varying sentence patterns or speaking about the way a particular person or culture arranges sentences. Yoda's syntax is an example of syntax that is particular to one person. He often speaks in Complement - Verb - Subject order.

2. phonetics - dealing with pronunciation

Phonetics is all about the way a word sounds. Remember phonics for little kids. It's how to teach children the way specific letters or groups of letters sound. When a word is spelled phonetically, it is spelled how it sounds. A word that is not necessarily spelled how it sounds is chef...phonetically someone might write shef instead.

3. nonverbal - communication without words

Nonverbal communication is often just as important as verbal communication. A child telling you she cleaned her room, but all the while won't make eye contact and shifts from foot to foot, makes one doubt the child is telling the truth. While her words say she did carry out the task, her behavior, nonverbal communication, tells us otherwise.

4. elements of grammar - syntax and morphology

See syntax for an explanation of it. Morphology is the study of word forms. This all leads to the grammatical structure of words and sentences.

5. unique - the only one of its kind.

Each person is unique. There is no person who has the exact same DNA, personality, history, experience as any other person in the world. This makes every person unique.

6. idiom - cannot be understood in the ordinary sense

An idiom is an expression that does not mean what it literally says. For example, "It's raining cats and dogs" does not literally mean cats and dogs are falling from the sky. It is an idiom that means the rain is falling very hard.

7. archaeology - study of ancient cities, artifacts, and customs

Archaeology comes from the root word "archae" meaning ancient. The suffix "ology" means the study of. Simply put archaeology is the study of ancient things.

8. tongues - another word for languages

Tongues was often used to talk about people who could speak different languages. A person was said to speak in different tongues or a different tongue. This was because the sounds created by a person's tongue were different than the listener.

List the items of information you must include about each word or phrase in your vocabulary journal.
NISA [10]

Answer:

A vocabulary journal represents your own collection of all the key words that you come across during your studying.

The information you should provide for each entry depends on the instructions your teacher gives you. However, here are some of the most important elements you should include in your own journal:

  • the word
  • meaning of the word
  • context (example of a sentence in which that particular word is used)
  • picture that will remind you of the word meaning (if you are a visual learner)

Which of the following is a recommendation for writing to people whose first language is not​ English? A. Use humor B. Cite numb
Westkost [7]

Answer: The correct answer is option "E". Be as detailed as possible to avoid confusion.

Explanation: When writing the writer must think about the reader and feel empathy by putting himself in the shoe of the reader. A writer must avoid the use of ambiguous words or vocabularies that the reader will have to consult an encyclopedia before he can digest the message. The writer must be precise and clear and choose his words carefully in order not to confuse the reader.

A writer must always remember that for communication to occur the receiver must understand what the speaker is saying and be able to send a feedback.
