Match each term to its description. 1. an introductory word, phrase, or clause which is missing the word(s) it is supposed to modify number 2. a noun or pronoun's function within a sentence dangling modifier 3. to quickly run indefinite pronoun 4. a clause with either an implied subject or verb elliptical clause 5. singular and plural forms gender 6. a word that joins words or phrases of the same grammatical type case 7. pronoun with no specific antecedent coordinating conjunction 8. a pair of words like either/or correlative conjunction 9. masculine and feminine forms split infinitive

Answer:

1. an introductory word, phrase, or clause which is missing the word(s) it is supposed to modify → dangling modifier

2. a noun or pronoun's function within a sentence → case

3. to quickly run → split infinitive

4. a clause with either an implied subject or verb → elliptical clause

5. singular and plural forms → number

6. a word that joins words or phrases if the same grammatical type → coordinating conjunction

7. pronoun with no specific antecedent → indefinite pronoun

8. a pair of words like either/or → correlative conjunction

9. masculine and feminine → gender

Explanation:

1. A dangling modifier is one that is unclear as to what or whom it refers. For example: Laughing, he kissed her while she was looking away. (Who was laughing?)

2. Case refers to the function of nouns and pronouns in a sentence. For example, "I" can only be used as a subject (subjective case) while "me" can only be an object (objective case).

3. When a word or phrase is put between "to" and the verb in an infinitive, we have a split infinitive. Example: to rapidly eat.

4. In an elliptical clause, a word is missing, but the meaning is not affected. Example: He eats more chocolate than I. (the verb "eat" is omitted after "I", but we can infer it)

5. When we think of numbers in grammar, we think of singular (one) and plural (more than one).

6. A coordinating conjunction connects words, phrases, or clauses that have the same syntactic importance. They are: for, and, nor, but, yet, or, and so.

7. Indefinite pronouns do not refer to anything or anyone specific. For example: any, some, anyone, someone, none, etc.

8. Correlative conjunctions are pairs of words used to connect two ideas. For example: either/or; neither/nor; both/and, etc.

9. In grammar, nouns, pronouns and adjectives may have a gender, which means they can be masculine, feminine, or neutral. For instance "he" has a masculine gender, while "she" has a feminine one.

Which two details best develop the central idea about Julius Caesar?

Dictatorships
by Hal Marcovitz
(excerpt from “The Rise of Julius Caesar”)

Sulla was a brutal and relentless dictator. But one enemy who escaped his wrath was Gaius Julius Caesar. Caesar was born in 100 BCE to a wealthy family. As a nephew of Sulla’s opponent Marius, Caesar found himself on Sulla’s list of enemies. No doubt he too would have been killed, but his family intervened, and Sulla reluctantly spared his life. Next, Sulla ordered Caesar to divorce his wife. Caesar refused and fled the city. He joined a Roman army campaigning in Turkey and did not return until after Sulla’s death in 78 BCE.
