Semicolon - ;

Is used when you need to piece two sentences together but using a comma wouldn't fit or be appropriate for the sentence. As follows:

"I have to study for finals tonight; I can't go out."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Colon -  :

Is used for "As follows" ect.

Example: <-- (That)

Primary colors:   <-- (That)

Red

Blue

Yellow


Good luck!

Which lines from Ovids "pyramids and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?
9966 [12]

This question is incomplete because the options were not given; here is the complete question:

Which lines from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?

A. Ringed by the tall brick walls Semíramis had built—so we are told.

B. If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe.

C. The wall their houses shared had one thin crack, which formed when they were built and then was left

D. When first light had banished night's bright star-fires from the sky and sun had left the brine-soaked meadows dry

The answer to this question is B. "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe"

Explanation:

In literature, characterization involves using details to explain the traits of characters, this includes their personality, physical traits, qualities, among others. This literary device can be seen in the excerpt "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe" because, in this, the narrator describes Thisbe, who is one main character of the story. Also, the narrator focuses on one important trait of this character, which is her greater charm that according to the narrator could only be found in Thisbe.
