English

The purpose of transitional words is to connect ideas, sentences, and paragraphs in any piece of writing or speeches in order to make the ideas flow smoothly and better.

There are a variety of transitional words and each of them have a role: some are used to express contrast (like<em> on the contrary, however, notwithstanding</em>), others to denote time (<em>after, at last, before</em>), to add more information to a previous point (<em>furthermore, besides, moreover</em>), to show similarity (<em>likewise, similarly, in like fashion</em>), to illustrate a point or give examples (<em>for instance, for example, to illustrate</em>), etc.

Answer:Transitions are words and phrases that provide a connection between ideas, sentences, and paragraphs. Transitions help to make a piece of writing flow better. They can turn disconnected pieces of ideas into a unified whole, and prevent a reader from getting lost in the storyline.

1. What can you infer from this dialogue from the diary of anne frank, act 1?
Elodia [21]

1. Anne is outgoing, Peter is shy.


In the dialogue Anne invites Peter but Peter says he's a lone wolf. This shows that Anne wants to be around others, while Peter prefers to stay by himself because of his shy nature.


2. "I've got to fight the things out for myself!"


In this piece of dialogue, Anne is showing that she is still trying to figure out the world on her own and make her own decisions. She does not want someone intervening on her behalf.


3. "I spend half my night shushing her."


It is clear from this piece of dialogue that Mr. Dussel is becoming frustrated with the idea that he has to stay up at night and shows the conflict between them growing.


4. Anne states will go to Paris or be a famous dancer and the audience knows she will not get a chance to do these things.


Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something the characters on stage do not. In this case, the audience knows that Anne will not survive the Holocaust and therefore not be able to go to Paris or become a dancer.


5. Unbearable


Peter is a quiet observant child. He is not hurtful or purposefully unfriendly. He can be unbearable in Anne's opinion sometimes.
