This adjectival suffix comes from Latin and it is used to Anglicize Latin loan words. It means “having the nature of”, “composed of”.  In the case of these adjectives, it means that the person, idea or animal that is qualified by these adjective has either courage or grace.

Part B What is the author’s purpose for writing “Midas’s Zinc Touch”? Write your response in 15 to 30 words.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The story talks about greed.

Explanation

King Midas was once rewarded by God for taking good care of his friend. Midas asked God to grant him a wish that whatever he touched should turn to gold. God asked him if he had thought wisely. Midas said he had taken a wise decision. When he touched his daughter, she turned to Gold.

But the story happened in the Bronze Age, where his kingdom casted bronze, a high tech field of the day. The metallic deposits near Phrygia, his kingdom, possesed an abundance of ores with zinc.

Interestingly enough, modern chemists today know that zinc mixed with copper doesn't form bronze, it forms brass. The earliest known brass foundries existed in, of all places, the part of Asia Minor where Midas once lived.
