Answer:

From the given sentence and question, no verb is highlighted, but from the sentence, "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun on time", you can see that there is tautology as the word "on time" is used twice in the sentence when it could have been used only once.

Therefore, to correct this tautology, the sentence can be rewritten as: "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun early".

As a result of this, there is no incorrect verb form in the sentence, so it is safe to assume that the highlighted verb is correct.

Identify the awkward or illogical part of the following sentence. Fustian writing is where you write pompous, bombastic nonsense
11111nata11111 [884]
The sentence "Fustian writing is where you write pompous, bombastic nonsense." is illogical for the following reasons:

1. Fustian, like the sentence implies, means pretentious speech or writing.
2. Fustian writing does not refer to a place.
3. The word <em>where </em>is used to refer to a place.
4. Using the word <em>where </em>implies that<em> fustian writing</em> is a place, which is wrong.

Therefore, one can correct the sentence and say this instead: Fustian writing is when you write pompous, bombastic nonsense.
