Hatshy [7]

The process described in the question is called the Frog Life Cycle, but the question is about Language features.

<h3>What are Language Features?</h3>

Language Features are the basic components of any language which when used, help the writers to better communicate their ideas and the reader(s) to better understand what is being said.

Examples of language features other than those in the question are:

  • Punctuations
  • Nouns
  • Pronouns etc.

Some Language features used in the text therefore are

  1. Present Tense of the Verb Lay. This is used in the sentence
    "First, the mother frog <u>lays</u> her eggs in the water."
  2. Time connective. (These are words that are used to connect a series of events. Examples are:
  • before
  • after
  • shortly
  • lastly.

Some of the Time connectives used in the sentence are highlighted in bold below:

  • First, the mother frog...
  • Next, the eggs hatch... and
  • Finally, the froglet...
