English

Answer:

She turned around and said, "By the way, Sally, where were you on Halloween, 1998?"

Explanation:

First of all, for any reported speech, the insertion of the comma (,) right after 'said' is a must. Then, we have the commas (,) next to way, Sally, and Halloween. These are correct as they are the prominent points in the whole speech where the emphasis is on. The inclusion of the comma right after Halloween implies that the speaker is asking about a particular Halloween, i.e. 1998. Putting commas before and after Sally laid the emphasis on the addressee- Sally.

So, the first option is the right answer.

A grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically what?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

A grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically correct.

Explanation:

<u>A grammatical morpheme can be an entire word or simply a group of letters that helps show another word's grammatical category, tense, number, etc. </u>The definition may be strange, but it is easily understood with an example:

- I watch TV yesterday.

<u>Is the sentence above grammatically correct? No.</u> And that is <u>because</u> the word "yesterday" indicates that the action expressed by the verb happened in the past, but <u>the verb itself is missing the grammatical morpheme that indicates the past tense</u>. In this case, since "watch" is a regular verb, the morpheme that is missing is -ed:

- I watched TV yesterday.
