Which sentence has the most traditional syntax?

English
1 answer:
ycow [4]3 years ago

The answer is D. As her leg jiggled up and down, she chewed a ragged nail and checked her watch.

Explanation:

Syntax is a component of language that focuses on the arrangement of elements or structures used to convey ideas. Traditional syntax follows the subject-predicate structure; this means the agent of the action is followed by the action. This arrangement can be seen in the section "she (subject) chewed (verb) a ragged nail and checked (verb) her watch".

Besides this, to preserve the traditional structure other details such as complementary clauses are usually placed at the beginning and separated by a comma or similar punctuation. This occurs in "As her leg jiggled up and down" because this detail complements the sentence and is placed before the main clause separated by a comma.

In about two hundred words, explain how the literary devices used in the novel convey theme.<br>​
777dan777 [17]

I don’t know which specific novel you may be referencing, but generally:

Literary devices can be used to convey theme in many ways. You can use them to convey theme by describing the setting of the story, the mood of the story, the moral of the story, and much more.

You can use foreshadowing to hint at future events important to the story, symbolism to represent important objects relative to the theme, such as a dove in heaven, and you can use a metaphor to assert that one object is another, which brings new meaning to the original subject for a renewed comprehension. These can all improve the conveyance of theme in a story.

These are just a few of the many different literary devices that you can utilize to articulate subjects within a story to add to the understanding or to signify the importance of any detail within the story.”
