You use "a" before a consonant, "an" before a vowel, but it is used before "hour" or "honest" because the Hs are silent. We use "the" to help us talk about things or events.
Exs:
A "C"lock
An "A"pple
The "School"
I hope this helped.

In your journal jot down a story in your life that shaped your ideas on freedom. pleaseee help tysm if u doo

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

This is my story of freedom of speech:

One day I was was with my favorite teacher and I hear one of my friends talking about me with her friend. She said bad things about me. This is when I figured what freedom of speech was. She kept talking about me all week and then I finally came up to her and said "I heard you have been talking about me.". She played around and then finally admitted she did. I told her "I know you think I'm a bad person and freedom of speech is a thing but honestly your a bad friend and talking bad about someone is honestly tells me more about you.". "What about me?" then I said "That you a bad friend.". We never talked again. This is how I figured what figure of speech is.

A poem about cat with 3 stanze and rhyming in one line wordin each stanze 3 line only

Gre4nikov [31]

A poem about cat with 3 stanze and rhyming in one line word in each stanze 3 line is described below.

Explanation:

1. A three line stanza is called a tercet. A four line stanza is a quatrain, and a five line stanza is a quintet.

2. 3 line stanzas are called Tercets. A stanza in poetry is a group of lines usually separated by a blank line. Stanzas of 3 lines are called Tercets from the Latin word tertius meaning three.

3. A poem or stanza with one line is called a monostich, one with two lines is a couplet; with three, tercet or triplet; four, quatrain. six, hexastich; seven, heptastich; eight, octave.

4. A monostich has been described as 'a startling fragment that has its own integrity'[2] and 'if a monostich has an argument, it is necessarily more subtle.'[3] A monostich could be also titled; due to the brevity of the form, the title is invariably as important a part of the poem as the verse itself:[4]

5. Some one line poems have 'the characteristics of not exceeding one line of a normal page, to be read as one unbroken line without forced pauses or the poetics of caesura', and others having ' a rhythm, (as with one-line haiku), dividing easily into three phrases'
