Answer:

The words, "...my father..." is the nonrestrictive element in this sentence.

Explanation:

<em>A nonrestrictive element describes a word's meaning that is already clarified without the use of additional words. </em><em>It is not crucial to the</em><em> meaning of the </em><em>sentence</em><em> and is usually surrounded by commas.</em>

The sentence you provided (it needs commas after "Jim" and before the word "is.": "Jim, my father, is going to drive me to the mall."

We can just say, "Jim is going to drive me to the mall," and it will still make sense. Therefore, we would not need the words (they are nonrestrictive), "...my father..." because it is an unnecessary addition of words that one does not need in the sentence for it to make sense.

I hope this helps you understand! Have a nice day.

Why does Dill pause "as if trying to remember" what his father looks like? What does Scout seem to think of Dill's descriptions
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Jem and Scout as of now understand that Dill will in general misrepresent a piece when he recounts his life in Meridian, Mississippi. They're never certain which stories are valid and which are definitely not. while the kids are attempting to figure one more route for Boo Radley to turn out away from any detectable hindrance, Dill makes reference to that he trusts Boo must have a major, long whiskers. Scout demurely reacts, "Similar to your daddy's?" Dill answers that his dad doesn't have a facial hair, however then understands that he may have prior told Jem and Scout an alternate story previously.  

Scout had gotten him in a falsehood, however Dill basically clarified that his daddy had shaved it off the past summer.
