Jerry was a connoisseur who collected rare coins.

In this sentence, connoisseur is being used as a noun. "Jerry was a [...]" can not be followed by an adjective when used this way. Jerry was a red, Jerry was a stupid, Jerry was a grumpy. These are all followed by different adjectives and do not make grammatical sense. Connoisseur may also not be a verb because these following would not make much sense either: Jerry was a running, Jerry was a took, Jerry was a walking, Jerry was a jumped. 

The actual meaning of a connoisseur is a person who has good sense or judgement. A critic when it comes to tastes in things like art, etc. Without knowing this definition, however, the above were ways you could figure something like this out next time.

Sometimes in English, a verb is used as a noun. When the verb form is altered and it serves the same function as a noun in the sentence, it is called a gerund.

Based on the lines “ life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage/and then is heard
Vadim26 [7]

In the lines: "life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage", Macbeth is expressing that life lacks substance and he is also comparing it to the life of an actor who is performing and all of a sudden he is no longer doing so.

In the lines: "it is a tale/told by an idiot, full of sound and fury signifying nothing", Macbeth is comparing life to a story told by someone who lacks intelligence; therefore, it is sort of meaningless.

Contribute to the development of the ideas in the text the Tipping Point
umka2103 [35]

The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell is a book about how small actions at the right time, in the right place, and with the right people can create a "tipping point" for anything from a product to an idea to a trend. Gladwell is not a sociologist, but he relies on sociological studies, and those from other disciplines within the social sciences to write articles and books that both the general public and social scientists find fascinating and worthwhile. According to Gladwell, the "tipping point" is "that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire."

According to Gladwell, there are three variables that determine whether and when the tipping point for a product, idea, or phenomenon will be achieved: The Law of the Few, the Stickiness Factor, and the Power of Context.
