Arachne filled her canvas with these and like subjects, wonderfully well done, but strongly marking her presumption and impiety.

Minerva could not forbear to admire, yet felt indignant at the insult. She struck the web with her shuttle, and rent it in pieces; she then touched the forehead of Arachne, and made her feel her guilt and shame. She could not endure it, and went and hanged herself. Minerva pitied her as she saw her hanging by a rope. "Live, guilty woman," said she; "and that you may preserve the memory of this lesson, continue to hang, you and your descendants, to all future times." She sprinkled her with the juices of aconite, and immediately her hair came off, and her nose and ears likewise. Her form shrank up, and her head grew smaller yet; her fingers grew to her side, and served for legs. All the rest of her is body, out of which she spins her thread, often hanging suspended by it, in the same attitude as when Minerva touched her and transformed her into a spider. Source: Ovid. "Arachne." Project Gutenberg. Project Gutenberg, 2 Apr. 2001. Web. 25 Feb. 2011. Which purpose of mythology is illustrated by the myth of Arachne? the Initiation history the Quest religion

Errors that have been corrected are bolded:

<em>"Cosmo Fairywinkle-Cosma stopped the </em><em>actress' </em><em>dog from running into the road."</em>

When using possessive apostrophes, if the word ends in an 's', all that is needed is an apostrophe at the end of the word. It is improper to have an extra 's' after the apostrophe.

Example:

<u>Incorrect:</u> The dogs's food was freshly served.

<u>Correct:</u> The dogs' food was freshly served.

Hope this helps a bit. Best of luck to you, mate. :)

What is phonetic transcription?
ASHA 777 [7]

To most of my research so far, it is the visual of speech sounds. When you look through a dictionary, you'll usually see these things under the main word you're looking for.

For example, you take a word like "Seahorse". You have the word type, and below the word type, you see some fancy looking text.

I will bold this mini dictionary bit for you to show you what we're focusing on.

Seahorse

Noun

/ˈsēhôrs/

The text in bold here is what you're looking for when you want to find the "Phonetic Transcription." Hope this helps!
