Rewrite the following sentence to eliminate cliches, jargon, and redundant language.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

1. It would appear that a large number of houses were damaged after the flood.

2. In my opinion, we have to deal with the problem right now and get the most of it while we have a chance.

3. If we fail to act, the fact is that the riverbanks will continue to keep eroding unless we do something.

Explanation:

To rewrite these sentences we need to know what are the definitions of cliche, jargon, and redundant language.

Cliche is an expression that has been so overused that it has become boring and unoriginal.

Jargon is a literary term of special words and phrases that are used by a particular group of people, especially in their work.

Redundant language is the repetition of the same idea or item of information within a phrase, clause, or sentence (tautology).

1. it would appear that a large number of houses were damaged subsequent to the flood.

Jargon - <u>subsequent to</u>. Instead, we can use the word <u><em>after</em></u><u>.</u>

It's better to write:

It would appear that a large number of houses were damaged after the flood.

2. i think that in my opinion we have a chance to really take the bull by the horns and make hay while the sun shines.

<u>I think that in my opinion</u> - redundant language.

Cliche - <u>to really take the bull by the horns, and make hay while the sun shines.</u>

Also, the word <u>really</u> is redundant here.

It's better to write:

In my opinion, we have to deal with the problem now and get the most of it while we have a chance.

3. if we fail to act, the true fact is that the riverbanks will continue to keep eroding unless we do something.

Redundant language -  <u>the true fact. </u>True fact creates a tautology.

It's better to write:

If we fail to act, the fact is that the riverbanks will continue to keep eroding unless we do something.

Rosemary seems quite mute as a person based on the first paragraph of A Cup of Tea. I would have to read more into Rosemary before I made a judgement, solely because of the Great Gatsby with Jay Gatsby where he seemed the same, however he turned out to be a completely different person from what he was portayed as by everyone.

Explain how the printing press altered Renaissance society. Your answer should be at least 150 words.
qwelly [4]

Gutenberg’s genius invention was to create a set of letters that could be pressed into “matrix” material, which was then filled with a lead alloy to make type. You got one of each letter in a font of type. If you needed 100 of the letter E, you molded what you needed. If a letter was starting to wear out, you threw it back in the pot and made a new one. Gutenberg's printing press spread literature to the masses for the first time in an efficient, durable way, shoving Europe headlong into the original information age.  Being able to print in quantity meant more people could gain access to learning, and more people could create new ideas.
