Which of these words is an endocentric compound?

English
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Most compounds in English are endocentric, that is, one of the elements (typically the right-hand element) is the head of the construction. Headedness is shown most clearly by hyponymy: the compound as a whole is a hyponym of its head. For example, traffic-light is a hyponym of light, but not a hyponym of traffic.

Explanation:

Therefore bittersweet would be your endocentric compound. Because something can't be bitter while being sweet.

How does the Rau’s word choice impact the meaning of the passage?
Margaret [11]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

2. (RL.2.4) Read the excerpt from the passage from " “By Any Other Name” by Santha Ramu Rau

“‘Come along,’ she said, frowning slightly. ‘What’s your name, dear?’‘I don’t know.’ I said flatly.”

How does the Rau’s word choice impact the meaning of the passage?

a.It reveals the language barrier that exists between the British and Indian people.

b.It conveys the teacher’s disinterest in her Indian students.

c.It highlights the loss of identity felt by the Indian people.

d.It affirms that the British people are superior to the Indian people

Answer:

c.It highlights the loss of identity felt by the Indian people.

Explanation:

“By Any Other Name" portrays the loss of the essence of indigenous individuals when forced to live in British "reformatorios", where they were forced to use Christian names and assume British customs seen as correct and civilized. In the excerpt shown in the question above, we see that one of the "teachers" of the reformatorio asks an indigenous girl what her name is. The girl was taught not to use her indigenous name anymore, what makes her confused about what name she has and who she really is.

The author's choice of words for this passage highlights the loss of identity felt by the indigenous people.
