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

English

Blababa [14]3 years ago

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 choice is an example of an incorrect or illogical comparison?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

That was the most worst movie I have ever seen.

Explanation:

<em>The most worst</em> is an incorrect form of superlative of BAD, as <em>the worst</em> is already a superlative, or 3rd form of bad. Using <em>most </em>with <em>worst </em>is excessive and not necessary.<em> The most</em> form is usually used with the adjectives and adverbs, especially those of more than one syllable.

For example<em> the most beautiful, the most disturbing, the most relevant, the most unbelievable</em>, etc.

Prices at the mall were outrageous,______considerably higher than at other shopping centers.
Marrrta [24]

This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with the appropriate word or phrase:

Prices at the mall were outrageous,______, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.

A. or at least

B. in other words

C. not to say

Answer:

Prices at the mall were outrageous, A. or at least, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.

Explanation:

<u>"Or at least" is used when we add similar information to what has already been said, but not identical. It is as if we are rethinking what we said and specifying it better, being careful to not exaggerate. </u>

For example: "He hates ice cream, or at least I think he does, because he never has ice cream when he is with me." "Or at least" was used in the sentence to explain why I think he hates ice cream and to show that maybe the first piece of information was an exaggeration.

<u>This is the best phrase to use in the sentence given in the question. The speaker first says the prices are outrageous, be then he thinks again and uses "or at least" to show that the prices are higher than in other malls. Perhaps they were not outrageous after all.</u>
