A. Line 1 only B. Lines 1, 4, and 5 C. Lines 2 and 3 D. Line 6 only
okay hi there hun! I will be glad to help you on this and recieve a medal
thank you
Do you know what a personification is @LittleMissCreeper
i think so
Well a personification is where you give an inanimate object such as a tree human abilities like talking or dancing
ok
so out of all of those what do you think it is
I am thinking 5 or 3 but i am not sure about the other ones
But in those sentences you do not know what they are talking about which automatically take those options away the only option that has personification is number one because breeze is an inanimate object that dosent actually breathe

A. Line 1 only B. Lines 2 and 5 C. Line 3 only D. Lines 4 and 5

ok onesec let me refresh on what it is and ill help you
Ok an onomatopoeia is a word that is used to imatate sound such as woof, quack etc
noun 1. the formation of a word, as cuckoo, meow, honk, or boom, by imitation of a sound made by or associated with its referent. 2. a word so formed. 3. the use of imitative and naturally suggestive words for rhetorical, dramatic, or poetic effect.
OK I think i get it

Ya i would believe so
so is it line 3 only?
Yes
Great! Can you help with one more question?
Yes of course
