In Scene 1, Act 4 of "Hamlet", Gertrude hast o tell King Claudius that her own son committed a murder. When it comes to whether she seems sincere or not, an example of an opinion is the following:

- Yes, Gertrude seems sincere when she tells Claudius about Hamlet's crime. So much so that she convinces Claudius that Hamlet is mad.

Gertrude is Hamlet's mother. She is present when Hamlet kills Polonius and when he talks to the ghost of his father.

Of course, Gertrude cannot see the ghost. Nor does she understand why Hamlet is acting so strange lately and why he would even kill someone.

Although Hamlet thinks he is just pretending to be crazy, his actions are truly insane. For that reason, his own mother believes him to be mad.

That is why Gertrude seems sincere when she tells Claudius that Hamlet killed Polonius in a fit of insanity. She is sincere because she truly believes her son to be crazy.

Hey there

Being the bolded verb loved, it is conjugated in the in the preterite of the indicative mood.

The indicative is the mood of the real life; it makes a statement or asks a question, and the preterite is the time of actions that already happened. In this case, the verb is showing something that happened in real life, real feelings and in the past.

Hope this helps

Which metric prefix means “a million”?<br> Kilo<br> Tera<br> Giga<br> Mega
Inga [223]
Mega means a million. You know because if you look up words with mega in them you will see. For example, megaphone, mega means million and phone means sound and a megaphone creates a sound increased by a million. Also, if you look up mega in a dictionary, it will tell you that mega means million.

Hope this helps! :)
