Answer:

C. Dancing

F. Singing

Explanation:

In Book VIII of "The Odyssey" by Homer, Alcinous the king of the Phaeacians boasts that his people "<em>excel the world / at boxing, wrestling, jumping, speed of foot</em>". Once the game was over, he again asserted that not only are they good in the physical exertion sports, but they are also good in dancing and singing. "<em>We are extremely fond of good dinners, music, and dancing</em>". He then asks his servants to start singing and dancing to proof it to Odysseus.

What is best term to describe the smallest meaningful parts of words?
Lera25 [3.4K]
B. Roots Roots are the smallest meaningful parts of words. For example the root word of aquamarine would be Aqua, which means water. So the root word can also give you a hint on the meaning of the word. Hope this helps :)

At the end of the scene, both Friar Lawrence and the Nurse tell Romeo he is acting like a woman for being so sad and emotional.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

I personally do not think that it was fair for them to say this, either to Romeo or to women. Gender stereotypes were a lot more prevalent in the 13- and 1400s than they are now. People expected more of men than they did of women — they were not supposed to show weakness or sorrow.

(Do not copy answer word for word, you'll get busted for plagiarism! These are just ideas to work off of :D)
