Answer:

The phrase<em> the samurai </em>is enclosed in brackets because they were not part of the original quote.

Explanation:

<u>In quotes, square brackets</u> are used to enclose words that are added as they were not part of the original sentence. In this case, the addition of the phrase <em>the samurai</em> is aimed at clarrifying who <em>they </em>is.

kotegsom [21]

Since we do not have the answer choices, the general answer below will help you choose the best definition for the word "epithet" as it is used in the excerpt:

Since the excerpt is about calling someone epithets such as "dear", we can conclude that "epithet" means a nickname, or an adjective that describes someone.

This question asks us to pay attention to context clues to figure out the meaning of a word.

A context clue is a piece of information given by an author that helps us understand the meaning of words in the text.

In this case, the context clue is the speaker calling the other person "dear", saying there is no lovelier epithet than this one.

With that information, we can conclude that an "epithet" is a nickname or an adjective we use to address others, usually expressing a characteristic of that person.
