Answer:

abstract

Explanation:

The word is not the thing it represents. That idea is the characteristic that language is <u>abstract</u>. Language could be arbitrary, ambiguous or abstract.  Language are arbitrary because words are not fundamentally connected to what they represent and language could also be ambiguous because what they mean is not clear cut and lastly, words can be abstract because they are not concrete or tangible because they cannot be held or felt, they are not the thing they represent.

Which statement most accurately describes presidential elections?
denis-greek [22]

How did the desert on both sides of the Nile help ancient Egypt
Arturiano [62]
It protected Egypt from foreign invasions: the desert was practically impenetrable, which means that any possible invasion could only come from a place they could expect (and prepare for): the along the Nile or from the sea.

Knowing that they don't have to fear foreign invasions meant that Egyptians could focus on growth and culture.
