The boxed words are a compound subject.
In a sentence talking about people, the people are subjects of that sentence. Subjects are basically what is being talked about.
Because there are two people being talked about, Bob and Al, the subjects are counted as one, or compounded. This just means that you read the sentence as [Bob and Al] instead of [Bob] and Al.
Compound verbs follow the same concept, but for action words. For example, “to sing and to dance”. However, in this case since the boxed words are subjects, they are a compound subject.
Is this a multiple choice question? If so, we need the answer choices to help you!
Answer:
Leaning left and limping light - Alliteration.
Silently, the night took flight - Internal Rhyme.
The story went on and on - Repetition.
So strange, the frail orange in the basket - Assonance.
For a simple walk, An elaborate talk - End rhyme.
We braved the cold, one and all and felt the chill in our very souls - Slant rhyme.
Explanation:
- <em>The first one is Alliteration as it displays the occurrence of the same letter repeatedly i.e. "P".</em>
- <em>The second one is Internal rhyme as its middle word "night" rhymes with the last word"flight". </em>
- <em>The third one is repetition as it indicates the repetition of the story.</em>
- <em>The fourth excerpt is Assonance as it observes a repetition of vowel sounds "Strange", "orange".</em>
- <em>The fifth presents the End rhyme as the end words "Walk" and "talk" rhyme with each other.</em>
- <em>The last one exemplifies the Slant rhyme as it shares the same consonant in "cold" and "chill" with a distinct sound. </em>
