English

<u>Answer:</u>

Many dictionaries mark a short vowel sound by using the vowel with no other markings.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A word which does not allow the vowel in it to create that vowel's long vowel sound is called a short vowel.

To understand this better, we can take an example of the word 'cat'. Cat is a short vowel word because there is no long 'A' sound in it. A short vowel word does not have to a three letter word but it is the easiest example to understand since a short word does not allow the long vowel sound to dominate.

Which of the following characters exhibits irony in the canterbury tales?
anastassius [24]

The Canterbury Tales written in Middle English is a collection of 24 stories that runs to over 17,000 lines by Geoffrey Chaucer between 1387 and 1400.

Chaucer’s humor is not stained with bitter satire. Chaucer looked on and smiled on the foolishness of the people. He was a master of irony and sympathetic humor. Chaucer's humor is almost innocent fun.

Satire is found in the world of Chaucer, but it is rarely coarse, seldom severe, and never savage. His humor is not tinged with fierce and biting satire. He did not hit the strongholds of corruption mercilessly; he simply laughed at them and made us laugh. Bitter satire, in fact, did not penetrate the sympathetic and genial outlook of Chaucer. His interest lay in the depiction rather than in an exposure. His object was to paint life as he saw it, to hold up mirror to nature as he sensed it, with a humorous touch.

The character who exhibits irony in the canterbury tales is:

the Plowman, who works hard in the fields

Read the excerpt from Story of My Life by Helen Keller.
Lelechka [254]

The minor detail from the excerpt that is not necessary in a summary is:

  • Laura Bridgman had dressed the doll that Miss Sullivan gave to Helen.

<h3>What is a minor detail?</h3>

A minor detail is a supporting fact that does not have any key meaning or additive impact in a sentence.

So, the statement that Laura dressed the doll that was given to her is not a crucial factor that adds any core meaning. Therefore, it is not required in a summary.
