Answer:

<em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law."</em>

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words or phrases that can stand as a full sentence without the need for any other clause or words to complete it. It contains a subject and a verb, and a complete thought which makes it independent.

In the given sentence, there are two parts of the sentence. One is<em> "Not only does each branch of government have their own specific job"</em> which is a dependent clause as it does not contain a complete thought or is not a complete sentence. The other part of the second <em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law"</em> is an independent clause as it not only contains a subject "they" and verb "monitor" but it also is a complete sentence on its own.

Thus, the second part of the sentence is an independent clause.

Which element does a translator make decisions about that effect the tone and pacing of a story?
Oksanka [162]

The translator is an author, a writer who does not start writing from scratch, but from a text written in a language that he has to translate into a different language, adapting it at the same time. The translator not only has to transfer the lexical and syntactic aspect, in fact, a set of words, although well constructed at the syntactic level is not enough, it is not very comprehensible and will lack that "something" that every good translator has to give to the text . The fact that a translated text must remain faithful to the meaning of the original text, without compromising the linguistic norms of the target language, is a key principle of translation, more or less shared by everyone. From this principle all the considerations of the translator and the translation techniques that he chooses are based or have to be based. The translator, as far as possible, has to try to overcome the obstacle of double translation and try to make his version as similar as possible to the original. A so-called "bridge language" is sometimes used.

Treaty of versailles main points how you would change them for the better?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer/Explanation

The Treaty of Versailles could have been improved in many ways. First, more countries could have helped pay for the damage, The treaty gave some German territories to neighboring countries and placed other German territories. It would have been a more settled argument if they used the 14 points which were general and not bias.

(How would change it to make it better)

First, more countries could have helped pay for the damage because all of the countries took part in this war. This also could have been improved because the treaty of Versailles only blamed one country.
