There are two definitions one <em>sprang</em>:

  • sprang ( v ) - past participle of the verb spring
  • sprang ( n ) - a weaving technique when there is no weft left.

<em>Strand </em>has many different meanings. For the basic comparison with sprang let's list two of them:

  • strand ( v ) - to be left ashore ( a ship, fish etc)
  • strand ( n ) - number of threads or fibers to make a rope.

We can observe that as a noun the words have got almost the similar meanings although they differ with regards to their physical attributes.

Answer:

Both words sound very similar and could work very easily as half-rhymes, although they have different meanings.

Explanation:

"Strand" means "shore" and/or "string" as a noun, but also "to fail" as a verb. This is totally different than "Sprang", which means the past tense for "spring" as a verb, but also "fountain" as a modal verb and/or adjective. This is why both words have very different meanings, although their pronunciation is very similar.

We quickly settled ___ to our routine once we came back from the vacation
ollegr [7]

We quickly settled <u>down</u> to our routine once we came back from the vacation

<u>Explanation:</u>

A preposition is a word used to connect things, pronouns, or expressions to different words inside a sentence. They act to associate the individuals, articles, time and areas of a sentence. Relational words are generally short words, and they are regularly set straightforwardly before things.

A preposition is a word or set of words that shows area (in, close, next to, on) or some other connection between a thing or pronoun and different pieces of the sentence (about, after, furthermore, rather than, as per).

Directions: Choose the option that maintains parallel structure in the sentence.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

A. Clutched her stomach.

Explanation:

Parallel structure refers to the use of a similar word patterns in a sentence. In other words, this means that the tense or word form used is the same in a sentence.

In the given sentence, the verb used is in the simple past tense. So, the verb structure all throughout the sentence will remain in that form, meaning the verbs used will all be in the same form.

So, the sentence with parallel structure will become-

<em>When Delores realized that her father had made lima beans and rice for dinner, she claimed to feel nauseous, clutched her stomach, and excused herself from the table. The bag of stale popcorn in her room would tide her over until breakfast.</em>

The parallelism is seen in the words "realized, claimed, clutched, excused".

Therefore, <u>the option that will maintain parallel structure in the sentence will be option A.</u>
