The correct answer is B. Pahom is unhappy

Explanation:

A linking verb is a type of verb that connects the subject and the predicate, different to other verbs they do not describe a specific or explicit action carried out by the subject, but the meaning of the verb is provided by the relationship established between the subject and the predicate, linking verbs include verbs such as feel, seem, be, taste, resemble among others. In the case of "Pahom is unhappy" the verb is "is" which is a form of verb to be that is classified as a linking verb, this can be explained as there is not a direct action but a link (is) between the subject (Pahom) and the Predicate (unhappy), this linking verb is the one that determines the meaning and thus, if it is linking a different subject and predicate the meaning changes. In this way, the sentence "Pahom is unhappy" is the one containing a linking verb (verb to be) as the verb just links the different parts of a sentence, but does not express a direct action.

The answer is B. The linking verb is 'is'. Linking verbs do not show any action but they connect the subject of a sentence to a word that gives information about that subject.

Answer:

A. The pen is mightier than the sword.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, metonymy, etc.

Metonymy was derived from the Greek word "metōnymía" which simply means change of name. It can be defined as a figurative language in which an object, thing, concept, or idea is referred to by the name of another that is closely related or associated with it. Thus, it involves substituting an object, thing, concept, or idea with a linked term having a close association.

A common example of metonymy is the pen is mightier than the sword.
