full rhyme: a rhyme where the stressed vowels and all the following consonants and vowels are identical, but the consonants coming before the rhyming vowels are different (such as chain, brain / soul, pole)

slant rhyme: a rhyme with the stressed syllables of ending consonants match, but the preceding vowel sounds don't match...the words have similar but not identical sounds. they are "imperfect rhymes" as you might say. (such as short, hurt / heaven, even, given)

meter: rhythmic structure of the verses in a poem

breve: a curved mark over a vowel meaning it's too short...it could also mean a double whole note, if that's what you're asking for.

Convierta las siguientes preguntas directas en indirectas. Did Diana go out last night? Where did Augusto meet with his brother?

kaheart [24]

Answer:

1. Do you know if Diana went out last night?

2. Can you tell me where Augusto met with his brother?

3. Can you tell me how the movie was?

4. Do you know what the problem was?

5. Do you know why Teresa was so early?

6. Can you tell me where you live?

7. Can you tell me when your birthday is?

8. Do you know who she is?

Explanation:

En inglés, preguntas indirectas normalmente empiezan por una pregunta extra que no es realmente necesaria. Es usada simplemente para hacer la frase más educada, cortés. Las preguntas más comunes son "Do you know" y "Can you tell me".

Si la pregunta original tiene una question word (who, what, where, when, etc.), debemos añadir la pregunta extra y eliminar los verbos auxiliares o cambiar su sitio en la frase si es necesario:

Who is there? - Do you know who is there?

Who did you see? - Can you tell me who you saw?

Who was she? - Do you know who she was?

Pero si la pregunta original no tiene question word y empieza por un verbo auxiliar, debemos eliminarlo y añadir "if":

Did you call me? - Can you tell me if you called me?

Do you like apples? - Can you tell me if you like apples?

stepladder [879]

Answer and Explanation:

I believe the mistake in the original sentence is caused by a dangling modifier. Let's take a look at it:

Preparing our dinner, the smell of the chicken made Ben hungry.

The underlined portion is the modifier. Notice the sentence sounds strange, even ambiguous. Usually, the modifier comes close to the noun it intends to modify. But, in this case, the closest noun is "smell". There is no way for the smell to be "preparing our dinner". That is what makes the sentence sound so strange.

To correct it, we need to change the modifier a bit in order to clarify to whom it refers. It could be "me", the speaker, or it could very well be Ben the one cooking dinner. Take a look at the options and see how much clearer they sound:

- While I was preparing our dinner, the smell of the chicken made Ben hungry.

- While Ben was preparing our dinner, the smell of the chicken made him hungry.
