Answer:

The word "Pretty' as used in this context is an adjective.

Explanation:

Recall that an adjective is a word that modifies or describes a noun in a sentence.

It is used to describe the attributes of a noun. An example of an adjective is

<em>John saw a beautiful lady yesterday.</em>

Here, the adjective here is beautiful and it modifies the noun 'lady'

An adverb, however, shows the degree or extent of something by modifying a verb, adjective, determiner in a sentence.

An example is

<em>The tortoise walked slowly</em>

Here, the adverb here is slowly as it shows how the tortoise walked.

Therefore, the word "pretty'' in the given sentence is an adjective as it describes the noun 'mare'.

In which sentence does the noun phrase "my oldest sibling" act as the subject
fomenos
The correct answer is - Coincidentally, my oldest sibling, Nate, just turned nineteen.
It is quite easy to spot a subject - just ask the question who. Who just turned nineteen? - My oldest sibling.
The first option is incorrect because the phrase is used as an indirect object. C is incorrect because my brother Nate is the subject, and my oldest sibling is the appositive. D is incorrect because Nate is the subject, and my oldest sibling is predicate nominative.
