Which line in this excerpt from act 1 of Romeo and Juliet is an example of an oxymoron??

English

O heavy lightness! serious vanity!

O brawling love! O loving hate!

Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health! Still-waking sleep,

All of the above are oxymorons. An oxymoron is simply something that is a contradiction to itself. Feathers are light, but here they call them lead which implies they are heavy. And when does love hate?

I have to make my on Definitions for ethos, logos, and pathos
Elena L [17]
Hey there!
I just studied these.


You can always research them or look them up in a dictionary but, sometimes they’re hard to really grasp. So I’ll put them in easy terms!

A patho- A patho is the appeal to emotion of the Audience. When speaking, one could use a patho to reach someone’s heart or strategically persuade them emotionally.

A logo- This would be the logical side of an argument. Maybe by persuading an audience with facts.

An Etho- Ethos is appeal to and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader.

Hope these easy definitions helped you to understand!

Which sentence has the correct comma placement? Mark Twain was fond of condemning lying by saying "If you tell the truth, you do
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Mark Twain was fond of condemning lying by saying, "If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything."

Explanation:

Quotations are usually used with a colon after a sentence. However, they can also be introduced with a comma when there is an introductory phrase before it, such as <em>by saying</em>. On the other hand, when the quotation is introduced in the sentence, the comma is not necessary, like the first sentence.
