Answer: B) original language and first use.

Explanation: Etymology is the branch of linguistics that studies the origin and development of a word, affix, phrase, etc. We can also say that it is the tracing of a word or other form back as far as possible in its own language and to its source in contemporary or earlier languages. So, from the given options, the one that represents what the etymology of a word or phrase includes, is the corresponding to option B: original language and first use.

If ray bradbury was alive today how do you think he would feel about technology?
Mice21 [21]
Ray Bradbury was always scared of the future. Books that he wrote including the Pedestrian and Fahrenheit 451, were about the future and what it will become. I believe that if Ray Bradbury were alive today, he would feel very strongly about limiting our use of technology.

Hope this helps! Have a great day :)

How does literal meaning of a word relate to poetry?
Rina8888 [55]
First of all, it's really sad that we're teaching poetry with questions like this, because this question really sucks the life and beauty out of reading poetry.

A is your best answer. Obviously knowing the literal meaning of a word is an essential first step to understanding what's happening in a poem. It's hard to analyze a poem if you don't know what the words mean to begin with. Once you know those meanings, you can then move on to thinking about metaphorical or figurative (i.e., non-literal) meanings of the same word.

B is partially right, but it's not the best answer. Certainly knowing the literal meaning of a word CAN help you determine the narrator, but not all poems have narrators, and sometimes the literal meaning won't help you figure out who the narrator is (especially if the narrator is deliberately left unclear).

C and D are wrong, and as a general rule in multiple-choice questions you should be very suspicious of answer-choices that use extreme language (like "useless") or that completely shut down a possibility entirely (which happens in choice C).
