Answer:

The words are not compound in nature. They are simply a collection of nouns all of which historically were a source of energy for train locomotives.

Explanation:

In order to qualify for a compound noun, a word must be made up of two or more nouns. For example, "tooth"  and "Paste" are nouns all by themselves.

They can be put together to form <u>toothpaste</u>. Another example would be "web" and "page". Together, we have "webpage".

The words indicated above don't pass for adjectives, verbs and or adverbs in the context in which they have been used.

Cheers!

A topic sentence is a sentence that includes the main idea of the paragraph.
It is a sentence that is usually found in the beginning of a paragraph, although not always. It is the sentence that states what the main idea of that particular paragraph is, and then the paragraph is there to support this sentence, not the other way round.

Which sentence shows the correct use of a comma in direct address?
densk [106]
A) Leaves out a comma before Walt (i.e. this weekend, Walt?)

B) Is not a direct sentence. The speaker is not talking to Abraham Lincoln; she/he is only talking about him.

C) Uses the comma correctly in a direct address. The speaker is saying something directly to Denise and there is a comma directly after her name.

D) Again, the speaker may not be talking directly to the boys but simply to the parents of said boys.

I hope this helps!!
