Spell this word correctly Kō’ me
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Come is the answer.

Explanation:

The question provides what is known (in a dictionary entry) as diacritical marks. These marks are used to indicate the pronunciation of a specific word. It also indicates the vowel sounds (long vowel or a vowel affected by other sounds) and other things such as accent marks. In this case, the diacritical marks belong to the word come.

Without adjectives, we could not describe things. Color would be less precious to us: there would be cars, but not red cars or blue cars or black cars. In describing a cat to someone who’s never owned a cat, all you could say is, “A cat is an animal with ears and a tail.” You couldn’t explain its soft fur or sharp claws.
