The sentence here contains a participle that is correctly punctuated. We have the phrase hiding in the brush which is our participle, and it clearly defines what the leopard was doing. Its is properly punctuated as the comma was necessary before the words, the leopard or else it would become improperly punctuated.

Answer:

The sentence contains a participle correctly punctuated.

Explanation:

The sentence above contains a present participle phrase <em>hiding in the brush.</em> This participle phrase is present as it ends in -ing. Participle phrase often include objects and/or modifiers that complete the thought (the PP <em>in the brush</em>).

What is more, this participle phrase is correctly punctuated because it is separated from the rest of the sentence by means of a comma. Participle phrases always function as adjectives, adding description to the sentence. That is to say, the information they provide is not considered essential to complete the meaning of the sentence. This is why it is offset with a comma.

True or false: over-using to be verbs can weaken a sentence <br><br> A. True<br> B. False
kozerog [31]

Over-using to be verbs can weaken a sentence  is True.

A. True

<u>Explanation:</u>

In English, we can utilize more than one action word to depict what's going on. Two action words may likewise show up in a solitary sentence in the event that one of those action words is an aiding or assistant action word. In these cases, the two action words inside the sentence are not on equivalent standing.

So It isn't important to utilize it again before the subsequent action word. We don't have to rehash the infinitive (to) either with parallel action words. When in doubt a basic sentence we should perpetually contain just a single limited action word.

One of the models in one of the appropriate responses given by others has two "ing" words and that is a basic sentence. So over-utilizing to be action words can debilitate a sentence.

Write a essay on Getting to know someone
nikitadnepr [17]

Getting to know someone can be hard. Sometimes it takes courage to ask or say certain things.

Getting to know someone is like getting to learn about something new. Always start off by asking name,age or etc. Do not get too deep because it can get too personal and a lot of people are insecure about certain things. Also it really depends on why you want to get to know someone maybe it can be for a relationship or etc. It isn't easy nor is it hard. Being self centered or TOO relatable can lead to getting off the topic of "getting to know someone", always try and stick to what they are saying and etc. Don't be too harsh or rude it can make people think otherwise or even lose confidence in themselves. Always think about what can possibly happen if getting to know someone this well what can happen in the future or how it will affect you. Always have a positive start don't be negative. Try not making the situation too serious that may lead to boredom for the person or even yourself, making you lose interest in getting to know them.

It is all a process but at the end sometimes it's worth it.

(This is probably really bad but I'm just giving you ideas)
