Describe three major ways that words in a language over change over time

English
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
8 0

1. Things will get lost in translation, and will change meaning over time. 2. Different words will come to mean the same thing as something else. 3. The use of the word could be different from what it was originally meant to be.

'Every word has a variety of senses and connotations, which can be added, removed, or altered over time, often to the extent that cognates across space and time have very different meanings. The study of semantic change can be seen as part of etymology, onomasiology, semasiology, and semantics.'

The shoe had been covered in seaweed after spending so much time sitting on the beach.

This is a complex sentence because there is an independent clause and a dependent clause. Dependent clauses are more like fragments of sentences and cannot stand on their own and be considered a sentence. An independent clause is a sentence that can stand alone and make sense.

The shoe had been covered in seaweed after spending so much time at the beach. 

The bold is the independent clause. This can stand alone as a sentence, whereas the part that is not bolded cannot.

Select the correct answer.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: The answer would be B;The stories always provide accurate historical facts.

Explanation: The reason that the answer is B is because considering the genre "Historical Fiction" has the word "History" in it, that refers to the past and "Fiction" means fake. It's basically saying that the story and events are completely true, but the people in the events and possibly even the times in the story are either fake or completely changed.
