English went through what steps to become the language we know as modern English?

English

AleksAgata [21]3 years ago

There are basically two steps  that go in a cycle. Old words from the English language are taken, and they are changed in how they sound and what they mean, making a slang, sometimes slowly sometimes  quickly the  slang terms become excepted as words by society and eventually they become the words being changed. If you think about it the language changes based on what  we find to be the way the popular people talk. In the past it was the rich or the actors/esses in plays that started a change in culture, now it are the musicians and actors/esses. That is what I think about it, there are probably more ways of explaining it, if I even answered that the way you wanted.

a pygmy hippo, like calvin coolidge's pet billy, can weigh around 600 pounds. determine if the prepositional phrase is an adverb
vladimir2022 [97]
I believe that the best answer for this question is an adjectival prepositional phrase because it describes a noun. It modifies the words "a pygmy hippo," which is the subject of the sentence and therefore a noun. Adjectival prepositional phrases modify nouns, while adverbial prepositional phrases modify verbs, adverbs, or adjectives. Hope this helps.

Explanation:

Swiftly would be an adverb because it is describing the verb flies. An adverb is any word that describes a verb. A helpful way to help find them is that they usually end with an -ly, but remember that not all adverbs end in -ly.
