"Everyday Verbals" What role do both present and past participles serve in a sentence?

English
2 answers:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago

The correct answer is the role of adjective. Both non-finite verbs can perform the role of adjective in a sentence. The following examples show this role:

Present participle as adjective, which can be recognized from its "-ing" ending:

Look at the <u>reading</u> boy.


Past participle as adjective, which are formed by adding "-ed" to the verb:

Look at the <u>washed</u> car.

Participles can function as adjectives when they end in -ing or -ed.

A participle that is ending in "ing" (present participle) is used for describing an object. Example: an interesting book. (Present participle: interesting).

When the participle functions as an adjectibe and ends in "ed" (past participle), it is used for talking about people. Example: The kid is bored. He is interested in video games. (Past participles: bored - interested).

Hi. My question is that can you let me know that what are the exactly 7 pronouns in english with definations....Please help
N76 [4]

Answer:

The seven types of pronouns:

The personal pronoun, the demonstrative pronoun, the interrogative pronoun, the relative pronoun, the indefinite pronoun, the reflexive pronoun, and the intensive pronoun.

Explanation:

1. An intensive pronoun is a pronoun ending in -self or -selves that serve to emphasize its antecedent.

2. A reflexive pronoun is a type of pronoun that is preceded by the adverb, adjective, pronoun, or noun to which it refers, so long as that antecedent is located within the same clause.

3. An indefinite pronoun is a pronoun that does not refer to any person, amount, or thing in particular, e.g. anything, something, anyone, everyone.

4. An interrogative pronoun is a pronoun which is used to make asking questions easy. There are just five interrogative pronouns. Each one is used to ask a very specific question or indirect question. Some, such as “who” and “whom,” refer only to people. Others can be used to refer to objects or people.

5. Demonstrative pronouns are Pronouns that point to specific things: this, that, these, and those, as in “This is an apple,” “Those are boys,” or “Take these to the clerk.” The same words are used as demonstrative adjectives when they modify nouns or pronouns: “this apple,” “those boys.”

6.  Personal pronouns: each of the pronouns in English ( I, you, he, she, it, we, they, me, him, her, us, and them ) comprising a set that shows contrasts of person, gender, number, and case.

7. A relative pronoun is a type of pronoun that often introduces dependent (or relative) clauses in sentences

Theme of the poem wanderer
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The degeneration of “earthly glory” is presented as inevitable in the poem, contrasting with the theme of salvation through faith in God. The wanderer vividly describes his loneliness and yearning for the bright days past, and concludes with an admonition to put faith in God, "in whom all stability dwells".
