Its a crossword for my homework...not a game
The clue is According to Mario Puzo, author of "The Godfather," Writing is ________ What I have so far is _e____i__
the word has 9 letters? i'm just confirming if i counted it right
Is this the only one?
No there are a couple more I can't figure out even after looking thru my book
Yes @Data_LG2 9 letters
I will post the others
okay, that will be a good idea :)
Extra words in a sentence that add detail and are set off by commas are called _____t___i___ 13 letters When two complete sentences are separated by a comma, it is referred to as a comma _p_i_e Six letters
I know the third one.
ok what is it KyantheDoodle
I have an idea for the first one, but the letter "e" is not in the 2nd place
It is a comma splice. It's when you join two independent clauses. Although it is quite informal when you use a comma splice because using independent clauses together requires a semi-colon.
it tells me if they are correct.
Thanks KyanTheDoodle
Unless a comma splice is a semi-colon. I'm not quite sure anymore. All I know is that it exists.
Ok no it isn't. :D
Splice was correct
WOOH! Ten points for DoodleDorf!
About the godfather by mario pizzo... i think it is intensive.. i'm not sure. And for the "Extra words in a sentence that add detail and are set off by commas are called" I think it is transitions but the number of letters don't match. Example of transitions are: moreover, however, additionally, and many more.. That's all I can think of :/
*dor I don't know why that f was at the end.
its not intensive for the Mario Puzo one @Data_LG2
Cant be transitions bc the 2nd letter of the extra words one is "a"
Well it most certainly ends in ive.
But thank you @Data_LG2
Could the first one be deceptive?
The one about Mario Puzo is "Writing is rewriting"
Oh. Wow. That's actually really stupid. Mario Puzo's a real douche.
lol I just typed in "writing is" on google and that popped up
The only one I gotta figure out is the "Extra words..."
Ahh I got it...the extra words one is "parenthetical"
Holy sheep. I would've never gotten that. XD
The third one is connectives
@Jennyfromdablock
We already figured the third one out. It's splice.
Oh, okay. I didn't see that one
