Discuss the author's use of phrases and clauses. Begin by identifying the prepositional phrases and any noun, adjective, and adv

zimovet [89]

Hello. You did not enter the necessary text to answer this question, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I can help by conceptualizing the elements you need to find in the text. That way I advise you to find your answer.

A prepositional phrase is a word set that has a preposition in evidence. These sentences are part of a sentence and have no meaning on their own, needing a complement to make sense. Prepositional phrases usually have a structure formed with preposition + object + adjectives or articles. An example of a prepositional phrase would be "She ran the marathon with pride on Saturday"

Nouns are words that give name to any possible being, object, feeling, or possible situation. This will be the easiest element to identify in your text. Ex: House, horse, joy, asphalt, table, dogs, etc.

Adjective is a word that gives characteristics to nouns, that is, that word expresses the characteristics of a certain thing. Ex: Intelligent, clear, thin, noisy, wet, melancholy.

Adverbial clauses are phrases that are inserted in a main sentence, acting as an adverbial adjunct to that phrase, that is, these clauses work as an adverb and therefore, modifying a verb. Ex: She past the test, because she study a lot.

What Is Iambic Tetrameter?

marin [14]

An "iamb" is a word or set of words that goes 'da-DAH', like "my KNEE",
or "your FACE", or "his DOG", or "come HERE".

Many poems have the same rhythm (beat) in each line, and there are different
rhythms they can have. I can show you that, if I take a poem you know, and
recite it first with the correct beat, and then with the wrong beat.

Here's the correct beat:
MAH-ree HAD a LIT-tle LAMB its FLEECE was WHITE as SNOW.

For the wrong beat, let's use 'iambs' like I explained up above:
ma-REE had A lit-TLE lamb ITS fleece WAS white AS snow.

If a poem is in the rhythm of "iambic tetrameter", then each line is
made out iambs, and there are 4 of them ("tetra") in each line.

Now I have to try and find an example for you. Thank you very much.

I'll make one up. Remember, an iamb goes 'da-DAH":

my DOG came IN-to SCHOOL one DAY
and CHASED the HAM-sters ALL a-ROUND.
the PRIN-ci-PLE came IN-to CLASS
and TOOK my DOG down TO the POUND.

(The dog 'pound' is the shelter for stray dogs.)
