Answer: Terms that describe the underlined portion of the sentence ("who is running for mayor") are: <u>nonrestrictive</u> and<u> clause.</u>

Explanation:

  • A clause is a grammar unit that, unlike a phrase, contains a verb and a subject. It is different from a sentence in that it does not convey a complete thought and does not make sense on its own. In this case, "who is running for mayor" is a<u> </u><u>relative clause. </u>

*An appositive is <u>a noun/noun phrase</u> which identifies another element in a sentence (typically another noun phrase). This is not the case here, as this construction is a relative clause and not a noun phrase.

  • A nonrestrictive clause, also known as a nonessential clause, is a clause which provides details that are not essential for a sentence to make sense. In other words, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same without this clause - <em>Sayeed Johnson will be speaking at the city library tonight. </em>

I NEED HELP WITH THIS EASY QUESTION BUT I AM CONFUSED 20 POINTS TO THE FRIST ANSWER AND BRIANLIEST!!!
creativ13 [48]

Hello! I would say your answer is C, court opinion.

A court opinion is something used in court - it announces the final decision of the judge, as well as restates a lot of the important parts of the court case. This has to do with the law, so it should be very formal.

On the other hand, a letter to your grandmother should be casual as it is a personal matter. A newspaper article is going to be as formal, but it is not regarded with as high importance as something on the legal side. An instruction manual will also be formal, but, same reasoning as a newspaper article.

Hope this helps!

Which word in the sentence is a particular article?
Alexeev081 [22]
"The" is the particular article

Articles are like adjectives, they modify nouns

"The" is particular, because it specifies the noun you are talking about. If I say "Let's read the book" I am referring to a specific one

What myths and fears were used to justify the lynching of black men?
densk [106]

Black men are being victimized because of the accusation that they raped white women, but of this there is no history, it was a motive that was used to justify the lynching. That blacks were inferior to whites and therefore there was justification for this society as a whole to be overthrown. Also because they were becoming a primitive race.
