Why does Whitman call ship "grim and daring" in line 4?

English
1 answer:
hoa [83]3 years ago
7 0

Line 4: “Keel” has multiple meanings. The first is the part of the ship that goes along the underside that gives the ship stability in the water. This usage really doesn’t make much sense, though, because one can’t see a “steady keel” unless the boat has fallen over. The other use of keel here is as a synecdoche. The keel, a part of a boat, is used to represent the whole boat. More importantly, "the steady keel" lets us know that, despite its rough trip, the ship (like the nation) remains steadfast and true.

Exercise 1 Use the spelling rules in this lesson to spell the words indicated.<br> critical + -ly
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The correct spelling of critical+ly is <em>critically</em>.

<em>Critically</em> is an adverb formed by the root adjective <em>critical</em> and the suffix -ly.

In general, to form adverbs from an adjective we add the suffix -ly after the adjectives' last syllable.

Adjectives that end with one L keep it when adding the suffix -ly.

This is the case of the adverb <em>critically</em>.

Other examples are:

  • Typical⇒ typically
  • radical ⇒radically
  • practical ⇒practically
  • cool ⇒ coolly

If the adjective ends with double L, we drop one before adding the suffix:

  • chill⇒ chilly
  • full⇒ fully

You can learn more about suffix -ly in the link below:
