<span>D. Nobody forgets the first time they make the winning play in a game.
Has an error in pronoun-antecedent agreement.

Nobody, an indefinite pronoun, is always singular. They is in plural form. It does not agree with the singular nobody in the sentence based on the pronoun-antecedent agreement.

Sentence D has an error in pronoun-antecedent agreement.

A pronoun is a word that is used as a substitution for a noun and the antecedent is the word for which the pronoun stands. Pronoun antecedent agreement means that the pronoun must agree with the antecedent in number.

In sentence D, <em>"nobody"</em> is singular while the pronoun<em> "they"</em> is plural. In this sentence, the pronoun <em>"they"</em> refers back to <em>"nobody"</em> as its antecedent. but <em>"nobody"</em> is a singular indefinite pronoun. Thus, there is an error in pronoun-antecedent agreement.

Please write a short letter to Lee, between 120-180 words.
Ray Of Light [21]
It would be too obvious for me to write the entire letter for you, but I'll include a list of points that you could include in your own writing style: 

* Thanking Lee for his letter, and saying that you are happy that he is having a good time. 
* Telling him roughly what you're studying at school (without being boring). 
* Write about what you would like to do when you leave school. 
* Finally, say that you miss him a lot and look forward to hearing from him soon.

igomit [66]

The ironic elements that is used to show the relationship between this husband and wife is exaggeration.

<h3>How irony is used in the story</h3>

Van Winkle is said to be a good natured and pleasant person but he is still described as henpecked.

His wife is said to be constantly nagging him and asking him to do household chores yet he is said to be a lazy person.

She is said to be eloquent yet the story tells us of her nagging which is not valuable.
