Fill in the blank: Tiffany added the chore of carpet cleaning to her list after the heavy _____ from her party caused the floor to look matted down. dignity apothecary traffic piteous

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

hint: "heavy" is an adjective, so the blank must be filled by a noun, as there is no comma after "heavy"

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

I wouldn't go with apothecary, that's like a drug dealer. Pharmasist.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

so you can cross out any adjectives from that list...

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Dignity?

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

what does "dignity" mean?

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Dignity- poise or gravity of manner

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

Would you have heavy dignity at a party? XD

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

okay... how would that make a floor all matted down? or what alexa said xD

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Lol no

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

So if you know what piteous means, you can look at that and the other answer.

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Piteous- pathetic; deserving of sympathy or compassion

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

as I said earlier... piteous is an adjective, it wouldn't fit

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Traffic??

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

the format is either "ADJECTIVE • NOUN" or "adjective, adjective • noun"/"adjective, adjective, and adjective • noun"

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

Yeah, like a storm of people going through a house I guess.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

well, does "heavy traffic" sound right to you?

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

kittiwitti that thingy you wrote up there makes no sense to me. o.o

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Format

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

format \[\text{adjective • noun}\]e.g. "lazy cat" \[\text{adjective, adjective • noun}\]e.g. "fat, lazy cat" \[\text{adjective, adjective, and adjective • noun}\]e.g. "big, fat and lazy cat"

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

*big, fat, and lazy* oops. anyway, @FredoNeedsHelp you got the right answer, good job \ ( • D • ) /

OpenStudy (alexatiger):

So that thingy ^ describes the way sentences are structured then? Okay learned that today XD

OpenStudy (fredoneedshelp):

Thank you

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
