Ira Lisetskai [31]
An interrupter breaks the flow of the sentence. It is usually separated by commas but for a strong emphasis of the break, a dash is used to separate it. In the sentence: 
<span>Imhotep, <u>one of ancient Egypt's greatest architects</u>, was responsible for pioneering the pyramid. 
that phrase is the interrupter as it is separated using commas.</span>

What are similes and metaphors and analogies and personification? Give an example of each.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Similes: using one thing to describe another. for example, "life can be described as a box of chocolates", meaning, "sometimes having unexpected surprises or nasty flavors (Like coconut or something) but still overall sweet!"

Metaphors: These are sayings that aren't meant to be taken seriously. For example, "I have a heart of gold". If my heart was actually made of gold, I would be dead. It's a metaphor meaning "my heart is as pure as gold".

Personification: This is when you give something a characteristic of a human. For example, "The lightning danced across the sky". We know lightning doesn't <em>actuall</em>y dance, but by saying the word "danced" we get an idea of the way the lightning moved.

(Random funny side note: Grammarly thinks my tone is "sad and uncertain" haha)

Hope this helps!
