Which sentences contain correctly punctuated nonrestrictive modifiers?

English
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
6 0

A nonrestrictive modifier adds information that is not essential for the reader to understand the sentence. In case the nonrestrictive modifier is eliminated, the meaning would remain the same. Only nonrestrictive modifiers are separated by commas. Taking this into account, the sentences that contain correctly punctuated nonrestrictive modifiers are:

  • My oldest sister, Maria, is a pilot - If we remove <em>Maria</em>, we can still identify which sister we are talking about.
  • My two best friends, Tory and Monica, met me at the movies - If we remove <em>Tory and Monica</em>, we can still identify which two people we are referring to.
  • Bulldogs, which I love, are the cutest! - If we remove <em>which I love</em>, we can still identify which dogs we are talking about.

Each guide was helpful, but we forgot to thank them.
You should use the plural pronoun, because we don't know whether the guides were only males, or females, or whether there were both sexes.

What words do you think are fighting words?? and what would you do?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Well what you are saying “fighting words” are offensive names. So probably names that most people wouldn’t want to be called. I’m usually a chill person,and don’t get mad very easil. But if it was someone else getting called these names, then I would obviously stand up for them and get mad.

Hope this helps!

5. Explain how the political events of the 1940s influenced Orwell's writing at that<br><br> time.
defon

Answer:

Orwell considered himself a democratic socialist, although he had a period in which he supported anarchist causes in Spain.

Explanation:

This speaks a lot about Orwell. It says that Orwell despised authoritarianism, and totalitarianism, and preferred governments where the power was descentralized.

During the 1940s, three totalitarian regimes were in full force: Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Soviet Russia. Orwell looked at these regimes with horror, because of the ways these regimes controlled every single aspects of people's lives.

He used these events as direct inspiration for his writing, specially for writing his most famous work: 1984, the story of a totalitarian society that shares many similarities with the regimes previously mentioned.
