That fancy vegetable dish you made was the best part of the meal.


I’m thinking it’s part... :P

Answers

Answer:

Dish - for an entire plate of food

Explanation:

That fancy vegetable dish you made was the best part of the meal.

As with other literary devices, one of the main purposes of a metonymy is to add flavor. Instead of saying, "These chicken wings, coleslaw, and green beans are delicious," you could say, “This dish is delicious.” Now, you’ve avoided naming all the separate elements of the meal, breaking up some of the awkwardness and making the sentence more vibrant.

How did Early Chicago's African Americans deal with the great tragedy? *

Answers

Answer:

By the 1840s, that promise was turning into reality as America pushed west. After the Civil War, industrial expansion, driven by ingenuity and optimism, was in full swing.

Explanation:

Even the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which reduced the city to rubble, didn't stop its growth. The fire did, however, affect Chicago's small black population. Burned-out blacks were pushed into less populated areas on the South Side of the city as racial lines were more tightly drawn. Despite new limitations, blacks continued to progress, participating in politics, and building social associations and community institutions to meet their needs.

How is the text presentation of this scene different from the film presentation?


In the text, the Roman citizens are unwilling to listen to Antony's speech. In the film, they are eager to hear what he has to say.

The text provides only Antony's words. In the film, Antony's inner thoughts are also clear.

Answers

Answer:

Honestly, this could go both ways. Some people are very enthusiastic, expressive, and passionate while other people can be loners, shy, and keep to themself. But, in my opnion I believe iy is best to be original. If everyone was always trying to fit in there wouldnt be anything to fit in with other than a school uniform. While being original and having your own style, personality, and your own voice is what makes you, well you. Just be yourself because everyone else is already taken. Have a wonderful day I hope I helped! Follow me for more help. Bye!

It is better to be original because you can be yourself, make new friends easily, and not pretending to be someone else.
