What does the term 'in medias re' mean?

1 answer:

6 0

In medias res is Latin for "into the middle of things." It usually describes a narrative that begins, not at the beginning of a story, but somewhere in the middle — usually at some crucial point in the action. The term comes from the ancient Roman poet Horace, who advised the aspiring epic poet to go straight to the heart of the story instead of beginning at the beginning. hope that helped

Always have a thesis, body paragraph, and conclusion paragraph. It needs to flow well, and there can’t be any grammar errors. If there’s a word or paragraph limit, make sure that it reaches or exceeds It, site your sources, (that are credible). Get your message across!
These are some that I could list off the top of my head. Hope this helps!

Upon seeing your study plan,what are the activities that you want to eliminate,change and improve

Brut [27]

Answer and Explanation:

When reviewing the study plan I have created, I do not wish to eliminate any steps, since I believe that all have been well established and all are necessary in their own way. However, I want to change and improve some things.

First, I want to change my rest time, which is very short. I believe that the rest time is important so that I can stay focused when I start studying, so I want to change it from 10 minutes, to 15 minutes every 1 hour of study.

I also wish for a better time when I start studying at home. I intend to always start at the same time to avoid clutter and make it a habit.
