an actor and playwright! hope that helps!
Here's the ones I believe are character vs. character conflicts:
<span>1. two sisters furiously competing against each other in a spelling bee (sister vs. sister)
</span><span>3. a local activist that is trying to overthrow a corrupt leader (activist vs. leader)
</span><span>4. a fairy tale princess that is trying to escape from her captor, the evil queen (princess vs. queen)
5. a young boy clashing with his sister as they attempt to plan a birthday party (boy vs. his sister) </span>
A word that can function by itself as a noun phrase and that refers either to the participants in the discourse (e.g., I<span>, </span>you<span> ) or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse (e.g., </span>she,it<span>, </span>this<span> ).</span>
It is less vivid; "raced after" emits a feeling of either action, suspense, or energy. It allows the reader to connect and fully understand what is going on. "ran after" is vague and emits little high energy.
