Use the chart above to determine the meter and line length of the word or phrase. bumblebee trochaic monometer dactylic monomete
KiRa [710]
The correct answer is dactylic monometer.
The word bumblebee has three syllables: bum - ble - bee. This means that the only correct answer can be dactyl, because trochee and iamb deal with words which have two syllables. Dactyl has to do with words which have three syllables, where the first one is accented, and the following two are not, as is the case here.

Owls from the barn. Which of these sentence parts is missing from the fragment? a. complete predicate
Vikentia [17]

Complete predicate

Answer: A

Explanation

When talking about the complete predicament, it merely means an action is being done.

It also modifies the phrase that finishes the taught in a sentence.

In general everything in any sentence that is not a subject is a predicate.

A subject indicates the explanation of the sentence.

This, therefore, is the above plus all other words that explain the happenings in that particular sentence.

In simple terms the predate gives a clear meaning of the sentence and its phrases.
