Answer:
The word patriot signifies a person who loves his or her country and is ready to boldly support and defend it. That meaning has endured since the word's arrival in English in the 16th century, but it has not marched through the years unchallenged.
Ultimately derived from Greek patrios, meaning "of one’s father," patriot entered English via French patriote—meaning "fellow countryman" or "compatriot"—during a time of political unrest in western Europe that was characterized by infighting among fellow countrymen—especially among those of the Protestant and Catholic faiths. For much of the 17th century, words like good were attached to patriot to distinguish patriots who shared both a love of country and a common allegiance from those having opposing beliefs and loyalties: to be deemed a "good patriot" was to be a lover of country who agreed on political and/or religious matters with whoever was doing the deeming.
Answer:
The student picked <em><u>his or her</u></em> own backpack and ran to math class.
Explanation:
Pronouns are those words that we use to replace nouns. This is to avoid the repetition of the nouns and to make the sentence smoother and easier to understand.
In the given sentence, the main subject is "the student". Now, we cannot know what is the gender of the student but it is understood that it will be either he/ she, which makes the required pronoun include both genders. And on that note, the pronoun for the 'student' will be used in the possessive determiners (his/ her) instead of the personal pronoun (he/she) forms.
Thus, the correct answer will be "his or her".
I dont understand sorry is that german or what
