Identify the appositive or appositive phrase in the sentence by putting it in brackets

English

Answer:

1.  (a home run)

2. (the plants by the hill side)

Explanation:

An appositive or appositive phrase serves the function of replacing the noun in a sentence. It provides more information about the noun and can be found at the beginning, middle, or end of a sentence. Without the appositive, the meaning of the sentence will still be retained.

In the first sentence, the appositive, provides more information about the game winning hit. It was<em> a home run</em>. In the second sentence, <em>the plants by the hill side </em>offers further description of where the rose bush was situated.

Answer:

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Indicate whether the underlined words or groups of words need capital or lower case letters by selecting the best choice. If an underlined section is correct, select "No change."

My husband, who is at home with the flu, asked me to pick up a box of <u>kleenex tissues, a bottle of extra strength tylenol</u>, and a jug of orange juice from the supermarket.

A. kleenex tissues, a bottle of extra strength Tylenol  

B. kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol

C. Kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol

D. No change

The correct answer is; Kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol (C)

Explanation:

There are certain rules applied when suing capital letters, and in our example the rule being tested here is the rule that, when writing titles of movies, publications, books or other products, the first letters of all large words must be capitalized, while small words such as is, an, a to on etc, are not capitalized, unless they are the first or the last words in the title.

in our example, Kleenex is a title or the name of a specific brand of tissue, hence it is capitalized, while tissue is not a proper noun so it is not capitalized, "Extra Strength Tylenol" are also capitalized because it is a brand name or title for a specific type of Tylenol (Acetaminophen, which is also a proper noun). Another example is in the sentence: "I am going to the cinema to watch Dragon and Kings". Notice that "Dragon" is capitalized at its first letter, the "a" in "and" is not capitalized even though it is part of the title, while the "k" in "Kings" is also capitalized.

There are other rules of capitalization in English language, I will list them out and you can do further study on them:

1. the first letter is a quotation is always capitalized as long as the quotation is a complete sentence

2. proper nouns are capitalized

3. directions are capitalized only when they refer to specific locations e.g North Carolina

5. two or more sentences following a colon are capitalized

6. the first letter or a salutation is capitalized. Example Dear Tommy.
