Discuss the developmental phases of the main argument in "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain."
crimeas [40]
The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain” In (1926) was a short essay written by poet Langston Hughes for The Nation magazine. It became the manifesto of the Harlem Renaissance. In it Hughes said that black artists in America should stop copying whites, that they will never create anything great that way. Instead they should be proud of who they are, proud to be black, and draw from black culture. Not “white is right” but, as we would now say, “Black is beautiful”.

guapka [62]
Based on the excerpt from Joseph Conrad's "The Lagoon", I think that it takes Arsat all night to tell his story. I have inferred such due to the sentence: "<span>Before his face the sun showed its edge above the tree-tops, rising steadily." This means that the sun has already risen. Arsat told a story about his past wherein he and Diamelen, escaped from the rajah's men. </span>

In the space below, type the spelling word derived from the root word, describe. Notice how the b changes to a p.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The derived word is: description.

Explanation:

A root word is one that originates other words. A derived word is one that comes from a root word. One way to derive words is by adding affixes to the root word. Affixes can be divided into prefixes and suffixes, which are added, respectively, to the beginning and the ending of the root word.

When it comes to the word "describe", a derived word can be formed by adding the suffix "-tion" to it. The root word drops the final -e and the -b becomes -p:

describe --> description

The change in the consonant may happen in order to make pronunciation easier. The phonemes represented by letters "t" and "p" do not require the use of vocal cords, while the phoneme represented by "b" does. Thus, it is easier to pronounce "p" with "t" than it is to pronounce "b" with "t".
