In which sentence is the underlined modifier correctly placed?

English
1 answer:
RoseWind [281]3 years ago

Answer:

Hello. You did not underline any modifiers in the sentences below. However, the only sentence that correctly displays a modifier is:

In ancient times, many dramas were written by Greek playwrights that have not survived.

Explanation:

A modifier is a word or a clause that is placed in a sentence to bring additional information, which is not necessary for understanding the sentence, but which extends the meaning of the sentence and is able to modify another element, specifying it. Recognizing a modifier in a sentence is very simple, because they are always separated from the rest of the sentence by commas, dashes and even parentheses.

In this case, we can state that, among the answer options shown in the question above, the one that used the modifier correctly was: In ancient times, many dramas were written by Greek playwrights that have not survived.

In this case, the modifier is a "In ancient times" clause that is separated from the rest of the sentence by a comma. In the other answer options, the modifier is not separated from the rest of the sentence and is positioned incoherently.
