The sentence "Beth and Melissa were both late since she had lost her watch" is ambiguous because the pronoun "she" can refer to any of the two girls.
In order to eliminate such ambiguity, we could rewrite the sentence in the following ways:
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the former had lost her watch.
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the latter had lost her watch.
The word "former" is used to indicate the first-mentioned of two people while the word "latter" is used to indicate the last-mentioned of two people.
Answer:
You may come upon sheets of seaweed drying along the shoreline. Merfolk weave a crude kind of fabric from it, called seaweed cloth, that is used for garments, rope, and even baskets. Merfolk tools are made from bone, discarded land glass, or the sharp teeth of sharks, but never iron.
Explanation:
Merfolk are water faeries who appear in Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles. As stunningly gorgeous as they are dangerous, merfolk live in loosely structured kingdoms deep in the sea, but occasionally their natural curiosity causes them to near the shore. Although usually seen at night out on the jetties or even sometimes on the soft sand of the beaches, they have been spotted in daylight, resting on rocky outcroppings. They have also been found trapped in tidal pools when the sea changes.
