Answer: Translating the demotic text on the Rosetta Stone took the work of many scholars.

In this text, the author mentions that Heinrich Karl Brugsch was the first scholar who truly understood the symbols in the demotic passage. However, he also claims that the scholar developed his work after other scholars such as De Sacy, Akerblad, Young and Champollion had made some progress with it. Moreover, he states that Dr. J. J. Hess published an even more detailed version of it. This supports the idea that translating the Rosetta Stone took the work of many scholars.

A group of words that has a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought is called: a. Independent clause b. Depende
larisa [96]

Answer:

B- Dependent clause

Explanation: An example : 'My father is reading a book because my mother is sleeping.' 'My father is reading a book' is an independent clause and could be a sentence on its own. 'Because my mother is sleeping' is dependent and makes no sense without its independent counterpart. Dependent clauses often don't make sense on their own.

How does Maya Angelou use figurative language to enhance the message of her poem?
makkiz [27]

Answer: no matter what is done to the speaker and to her people, her power is such that "still, like dust, I'll rise." This simile suggests that the speaker is lighter than air, floating upward, above the "lies" of her oppressors. The poem is replete with similes. The speaker compares herself to "moons" and "suns" and describes herself as having "the certainty of tides," all images which suggest constancy and a capacity to stay the course and outlast naysayers. The speaker also uses figurative language to suggest that she behaves as if she is wealthier than she is, knowing that there is an internal, natural wealth inside her. She behaves "like I've got gold mines" and "like I've got oil wells," indicating that the speaker carries herself with the confidence of someone who has valuable natural resources, and knows it.
