The figure of speech used
is simile.
<span>Juliet is being compared to
a rich jewel against an Ethiopian’s ear. Similes are often preceded by words
such as "like," when comparing two objects to make the description
more vivid. The simile used depicts that Juliet is outstanding that she is as
distinct as a jewelry against the dark skin of an Ethiopian.</span>
Based on the author's word choice, the statement that best explains what the author is suggesting in this sentence is - the use of the word "irritated" indicates that Wilson was not a strong supporter of the war.
He wanted America to be left out of this war, however, in the end it entered to defeat the enemy.
Is this a true or false question? When writing is concise it clear and straight to the point. Being concise means any unnecessary words are cut out, so false (???)
He asked, do I speak English?
Explanation:
There are two types of speech in English grammar i.e. direct and indirect.
Indirect speech is the type of reported speech in which the main message of the speaker is conveyed without keeping the original order.
Direct speech is also known as quoted speech as that reports the words uttered in the original form.
In an indirect speech the words are not written in the order they were uttered by the original speaker.
Unlike indirect speech, direct speech is written with inverted commas.
The original speaker is mentioned in the sentence to report whose words are being written.
