English

Answer:

<u>meant to intimidate colored South Africans</u>

Explanation:

We can make this conclusion because the text explains further the reasons for the use of such a phrase. Trevor Noah stated<em>,</em>

<em>"The most common colored slur was boesman...Because it called out their blackness, their primitiveness. The worst way to insult a colored person was to infer that they were in some way black."</em>

Because colored South Africans were born from parents of two different races, (one parent is black the other white) the phrase was used to create an intimidating effect in the minds of those affected.

Which sentence uses correct grammar? 1. Any student which wants to join the band should bring their instrument to the gym. 2. An
sattari [20]

Answer:

2. Any person whose last name begins with the letters A through M should join the first line.

Explanation:

Correct grammar is the use of correct punctuation or the different parts of speech or the subject-verb agreement or even simple things like correct pronouns etc.

Among the given examples, sentence 2 uses correct grammar. This is because 'whose' introduces the relative clause that helps readers understand the possessive nature of the nouns in the sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
