What is the combined meaning of the root word and suffix in the word bibliophile?

English
1 answer:
lora16 [44]3 years ago
5 0

The suffix <em>-phile</em> is used for making nouns and adejctives that describe a person who loves or likes something a lot. In other words, it means someone who likes or enjoys certain things.

In this case, the root word is <em>biblio </em>which means book.

Whe the root word and the suffix are combined, <em>biblio + phile</em>, it forms a new word which is used to refer to a person who loves books. It also refers to that person that collects them.

leonid [27]

Answer:

Cheers.

What is the connotation of the word *common* as it is used in the excerpt from “The Necklace”?
frozen [14]

Answer:

B. Unrefined

Explanation:

Are you sure your quote is correct?

The copy of the story I found has the following version of the excerpt:

"The other, astonished to be familiarly addressed by this plain  good-wife, did not recognize her at all, and stammered:  

"But—madame!—I do not know—You must have mistaken.""

Of the three answer choices, the second one, in my opinion, works best.

A little earlier in the story, we read this about Mathilde:

"Mme. Loisel looked old now. She had become the woman of  impoverished households—strong and hard and rough. With  frowsy hair, skirts askew, and red hands, she talked loud while  washing the floor with great swishes of water."

Unrefined (i.e. uncultured, not characterized by good taste or manners) would definitely be a good word to describe Mathilde Loisel.

How did increased trade influence the golden age of islam
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

B. It brought the discovery of the Chinese papermaking process.

Explanation:

With the spread of trade, Islamic countries could get more familiar with the outside world and other nations, influence them, and in turn be influenced by them. The Chinese had one of the biggest influences on them with their invention of paper and writing on it. Now, Islamic religious laws could be written down and paper and spread throughout countries to educate people on their religion.

I don't see how checks or medicine would influence religion, and arabesques already existed in the Islamic world.
