Let's talk about Fortunato's name. What does it

English
1 answer:
Blababa [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

Let's talk about Fortunato's name. What does it  remind you of?

The name "Fortunato" reminds me of the word "fortune".

If you met someone named  Fortunato, you would expect this person to  be...what?

Fortune has two meanings. It can refer to luck or to wealth. Therefore, if I met someone named Fortunato, I would expect this person to be lucky or rich. I would expect him to have a happy life.

I believe this question is connected to the short story "The Cask of Amontillado", by author Edgar Allan Poe. It is ironic that the character Fortunato should have such a name, since he is being taken by his very friend, Montresor, to be buried alive.

Which word in the sentence is a predicate nominative? George Washington was the first president of the United States.
ruslelena [56]
The correct answer is: A: president. Predicate nominative (also called predicate noun) is a word in sentence which <span>completes a linking verb and renames the subject. The examples of linking verbs are: is, are, was, am, were, be, being (the helping verb); look, smell, taste, touch, sound (the sense verbs); and there are also verbs like: seem, appear, become, stay, turn, etc. The verb with the predicate nominative can always be replaced with "equals". Example: Mr. Robinson is professor. Professor is predicate nominative, and the sentence would mean the same, if it was written like this: Mr. Robinson equals professor.</span>

How does the author use dramatic irony to create humor in king of the jungle
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The author provokes naivety in the characters, making them not know the obvious things that the public already knows, creating humor from naivete.

Explanation:

The dramatic irony is identified in a text when the author uses symbols to pass messages to the public without revealing anything to the characters. This creates unpredictability for the character and an advantage for the audience that is following the story. In this case, the author can create humor (where the audience laughs at the character's naivete and therefore his inability to act correctly) or suspense (letting the reader know the element of drama that the character is not aware of).
