natita [175]
In the phrase "to buzz forth doleful lamentations", the word "buzz" is an example of an onomatopoeia. Basically, it means that the sound of bees flying or "buzzing" expresses a melancholy expression. This could be considered an onomatopoeia, but it also is used to say the bees "spoke" which implies that they "buzzed" as in it was their way of speaking, diction if you will. The whole sentence is "<span>At length, as if comprehending their disaster, they settled down in clusters on a dry branch of a neighboring tree, whence they seemed to contemplate the prostrate ruin, and to </span>buzz forth doleful lamentations<span> over the downfall of their republic" which clearly says they SEEMED, which rules out diction as an answer. So, the answer should be onomatopoeia. </span>Hope this helps!

Answer: C) onomatopoeia.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Proceed (forward & go = to go forward) + ed (simple past tense) = Proceeded

Explanation:

The mentioned word was created from the two Latin words mentioned above which were firstly used in the French language as the word procederer. The word procederer comes from Latin language and it is the mixture of the “CEDERE-GO” and the prefix “PRO-FORWARD”.

It was only in the Middle-Ages that the English society had started using this particular word in the form PROCEED which has several meanings in English Language today:

To proceed = to continue doing something

To proceed = to go forward with your plans or actions

You may proceed = the most common way in terms of politeness to say to someone that he or she can continue with his/her work, intentions or other actions

In your question, the mentioned word is in the simple past tense (+ed)

Examples of Proceed + ed:

  1. They proceeded with their plans.
