Personification is the humanizing of an object, e.g "the tree speaking in the wind".  A metaphor is used to make direct comparisons between two subjects. An onomatopoeia is a word that shows "sound", e.g BANG. Alliteration is a number of words all beginning with the same letter, e.g Adam ate apple at Alabama.

Metaphor.
personification is giving human characteristics to inanimate objects.

an alliteration is a sequence of words with the same first letter. ex. sally sold seashells by the seashore.<span />

My family left the fair at 8:00, so we missed the fireworks display.
dolphi86 [110]

Hey there!

Answer:

Compound

Explanation:

It contains a main clause (My family left the fair at 8:00) a conjunction(so) and another main clause (we missed the fireworks display).So it's a compound sentence.

-It can't be a <em>simple</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>because it has a subordinate clause.

-It can't be a <em>compound Complex </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>because it only has 1 main clause and not 2.

-It can't be a complex sentence since it doesn't have a subordinate clause.

Definitions:

A <em>simple sentence</em> has 1 main clause.e.g. The boys fought.

A <em>compound sentence</em> has two main clause E.g. Peter went to the mall and he returned late.

A <em>compound conplex</em> has 2 or more main clauses and 1 or more subordinate clause.E.g. Jude travelled and she brought her cousin to live with her.

A <em>complex sentence</em> has a main clause and a subordinate clause.E.g. The boy bumped into the table and he fell onto the floor.

Note:

A <em>main clause</em> is a group of words that can stand on its own whilst a subordinate clause can't as it doesn't represent a complete idea.

Hope this helps!
