What type of language are you using when you say you are pleased when you are really extremely happy? understatement irony jargon slanting

Answers

Answer 1
I would say understatement.
Example: I accidentally burn myself in the oven, I'm in excruciating pain but when my sister asks if I'm alright I say, "yea, just hurts a little." instead of telling her that I'm in a lot of pain I downplay it, which makes it an understatement.
Answer 2
an understatement would be the correct choice

19. Choose the sentence below that shows correct use of subordination:

A.Carlo will play in the soccer game on Saturday unless, his knee gives him
trouble.
B.Unless his knee gives him trouble Carlo will play in the soccer game on
Saturday.
C.Carlo will play in the soccer game on Saturday, unless his knee gives him
trouble.
D.Unless, his knee gives him trouble Carlo will play in the soccer game on
Saturday.

Answers

Final answer:

The correct sentence that demonstrates proper use of subordination is option B, without an unnecessary comma after 'unless.'

Explanation:

The correct sentence that shows the use of subordination is B. Unless his knee gives him trouble Carlo will play in the soccer game on Saturday. This sentence correctly uses 'unless' as a subordinating conjunction to connect the two ideas, indicating that the condition of Carlo's knee will determine his participation in the game. There is no need for a comma after 'unless' when it starts the sentence, but if 'unless' were in the middle of the sentence, it would normally be preceded by a comma. Incorrect options include unnecessary commas that disrupt the flow of the sentence or place the conjunction in a position that makes the sentence grammatically incorrect.

Restrictive information is the one that helps to identify a noun and make it different from the rest. In a sentence, restrictive information helps to identify the subject or doer of the action, and it helps to avoid ambiguity. This kind of information does not need to have punctuation. Moreover, a complete sentence includes the subject and the verb without any punctuation that can cause fragments. Therefore, the correct answer is B: People who disobey traffic laws put others at risk.

Explanation:

Repacking her bag for her trip to new york was a slow process because sherri’s stuff was strewn over every inch of the floor. im this sentence, Which word should be replaced with precise language

Answers

In the text, the meaning of the word stuff is very general because it can refer to many elements, and it does not provide the reader with the exact information of what was strewn over every inch of the floor. Therefore, the word stuff should be replaced with precise language in order to specify which exact objects or elements are on the floor.

Stuff words should be replaced with precise language. Thus, option B is correct.

What is precise language?

The usage of words helps create clear mental images without the necessity of overly verbose communication of ideas. As we employ precise phrases in your work, they make readers visualize your ideas in a powerful, compelling way.

The keyword "stuff" within the book refers to a wide variety of things, therefore its meaning is rather broad and doesn't explicitly tell the reader what exactly was left across the floor. Therefore, instead of using the phrase stuff, use precise language to describe the actual items or components that exist on the surface.

It is crucial to practice free to speak not only because it is a requirement for quantitative exercise, but also because it enables speakers to effectively communicate and show that they comprehend. Therefore, option B is the correct option.

B. critics were upset that daisy and winterbourne never fell in love
C. critics were frustrated by her naivete
D. critics considered her behavior an outrage

Answers

The correct answer is D. critics considered her behavior an outrage.
Daisy Miller is known for her flirtatiousness - she flirted shamelessly with Winterbourne which was obviously an outrage for the time period when Henry James wrote it in late 19th century. This is the reason why critics were so appalled by her public behavior, although that obviously changed over time.
