What is the singular version of criteria, and why is it irregular?

English

Answer:

A.  Criterion is the singular version, and it is irregular because it is a Greek word in which the –on is changed to –a in its plural form.

Explanation:

"Criteria" is the irregular plural form for the word "criterion", which means a principle, benchmark or standard by which something is judged. "Criterion" is a Greek word, which is why it has this irregular plural. Another Greek word that has the same -on ending and uses the same -a plural is "phenomenon"/"phenomena". With that in mind, we can safely choose letter A as the correct option.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A). Lucifer's teeth are flat.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from Canto xxxiv of Dante's inferno, when Dante and Virgil's appear at the Hell(Ninth Circle), they encounter Lucifer who is described as the giant caught confined in sheer ice up to his mid-chest. He possessed three faces(which involved a 'fiery red' in front and all these faces are aiming to munch the sinner) along with two giant sized enormous wings. Above all, one thing that distinguishes <u>Blake's description would be 'the details associated with the Lucifer's flat teeth' as there is no specific description regarding this in Dante's text</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
