What are Gerunds, infinitives, and participles?

A gerund is a word with a "ing" ending that functions as a noun. A verb that has been given the "-ing" suffix has been altered so that the entire word now functions as a noun.

A verb's basic form gains the word "to" to produce an infinitive, which can then be used as a verbal noun, adjective, or adverb.

Depending on the root word, a participle is a verb that serves as an adjective and ends in one of the following suffixes: "-ing," "-ed," "-en," "-d," "-t," "-n," or "-ne."

When a participle and one or more nouns or pronouns are united, they form a participial phrase, which is a group of words.

The phrase to complain is an infinitive.

Which of these literary elements does F. scott fitzgerald rely upon most in the great Gatsby?

astra-53 [7]

The biggest Character Tool Fitzgerald uses with Jay Gatsby in The Great Gatsby is Speech. Gatsby's effort to sound well-educated For the most part, characters in The Great Gatsby are well-educated. Their speech and dialogue reflect this education, which in turn reflects their wealth and social status. The narrator takes note, however, of Gatsby's affected speech, speech of "elaborate formalities" that borders on "absurd." It is clear to him that Gatsby must practice to sound educated and wealthy - he must practice at being a part of Daisy's world. The fact that Nick isn't fooled would suggest that others, too, are not so taken in by Jay's efforts. His transformation to a man of high society is incomplete at best, and failed at worst.
Hope this helps. and Good Luck to you <3

1. The POV is first person, because the narrator says ‘I’ when speaking about themself

2. When someone laughs on the street late at night you can hear it for miles, and usually if you’re able to hear it that means you’re not doing something exactly enjoyable?

3. I’m not too sure about this one, but I did some:

The cab I had was a little old but smelled like someone’s just wiped down the leather. I rarely get those fragrant kind of cabs if I go anywhere late at night. It was so quiet out, though hardly lonesome. There weren’t many people out on the street because most everyone was staying in with loved ones and relaxing. Now and then you just saw a boy and a girl crossing a street, with the arms around each other’s waist and all, or a bunch of energetic looking guys and their dates, all of them laughing like birds in the morning at something clever that had been said. New York’s amazing when someone laughs on the street very late at night. You can hear it for miles. It makes you feel like you’re not alone at all.
