English
1 answer:
zzz [600]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If you say that someone is playing with fire, you mean that they are doing something dangerous that may result in great harm for them and cause many problems.

When fire was the exclusive property of the gods, it symbolized the divine power to make the world do what you wanted it to do. When you think about it, that's pretty major. So Prometheus decided to make man stand upright as the gods did and to give them fire. He was attempting to manipulate something very dangerous, the gods. it was like he was "playing with fire"

Which of the following accurately describes the relationship between the theory of universal grammar and acquisition of a second
pishuonlain [190]

The sentence that accurately describes the relationship between the theory of Universal Grammar and the acquisition of a second language is "The theory of Universal Grammar  supports language acquisition because all languages share a similar structure." According to this theory, there are <u>universal principles</u>, shared by all languages, and <u>parameters</u> that can vary between languages. So, a second language learner has to set the values of a parameter. For example, the pro-drop parameter has two values, the pro-drop in the case of the Spanish language, in which a subject or object pronoun can be omitted, and the non-pro drop in the English language, in which the pronoun cannot be omitted.
