This might be a partial explanation as to why latin was used....basically...early astronomers didn't know too much about the features during their time so..they used latin as a neutral language ..although now we know to be inaccurate....the names have just stuck.

Match the quotes with the literary devices they use.
jenyasd209 [6]

The matching of the quotes is as follows:

"O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" – John Donne

This quote uses oxymoron, since it is using words that cancel each other out. These words being miserable abundance and begarly riches, together seem contradictory but it does describe correctly.

"What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young." – George Bernard Shaw

This one shows a paradox where it states that young people waste their youth. Makes you think about how a young person would waste their youth still being young.

"I can resist anything but temptation." – Oscar Wilde

This one shows paradox, since it is more than a couple of words, that are describing an action that is contradicting itself. In this case resisting anything but temptation.

"How is it possible to have a civil war?" – George Carlin

This one shows an o 2 oxymoron, since it consts of 2 words that are contradicting eachother. Making us ask ourselves, "How can there be a war that is civil?"

Based on your knowledge of word parts, which word best completes this sentence?
bearhunter [10]
Correct answer 2.) emboldened

Encased refers to the idea that something is enclosed, which does not make sense to be enclosed when he is trying to speak French in Paris. 

Emboldened, the correct answer, means that you are bold and empowered to be bold. 

Ensnared implies that you are caught in something like a trap. 

And Encroached means an intrusion. In this case he did not intrude to speak French in Paris.

Rzqust [24]

The correct answer is C. (Perenson 30)

Explanation:

In writing, a citation refers to the use of the words and ideas of an external source and therefore another author, which is commonly used to support and explain the ideas during a text. According to the MLA manual and other style manuals for writing academical paper when using the ideas or words of another author it is necessary to make clear which ideas are being used and to whom they belong, this is done by using in-text citation during the text and creating a work cited list at the end of the document with all the information of the source cited.

In the case of printed articles from magazines or similar publications, it is established during in-text citation it is necessary to include the last name of the author of the article followed by the page number which is usually done by including this information in parenthesis or doing a parenthetical citation. This means in the case of the source presented the parenthetical citation should include the last name of the author "Perenson" and the page number "30" therefore the option that shows the correct parenthetical citation of this source is  (Perenson 30).
