What are the options of answers
Explanation:
The semicolon is used in the text above, to cause an intermediate effect between the comma and the period. In this case, when he used a semicolon the author was indicating to the reader that it was necessary to pause, in reading, longer than the pause of a comma, but less long than the pause of a point. This is done because the sentence displays a partially complete thought, but it will present more arguments to be finalized.
In a more simplified way, we can say that the use of a semicolon in the text above was made to separate long coordinated sentences with the same syntactic function.
Answer:
<h2>Here are some simple examples:</h2>
The dog that stole the pie is back.
(The relative pronoun is bold. The adjective clause is highlighted.)
My new dog, which I bought last year, loves green beans.
The person who bought his car found a 3-carat diamond under the seat.
Our lawyer, whom we employed for over a year, was related to the complainant.
The young girl whose cat scratched our sofa has offered to replace the cushions.
<h2>The Function of Relative Pronouns</h2><h3>The function of a relative pronoun is to head (or introduce) an adjective clause. An adjective clause follows a noun:</h3>
(1) To identify it.
For example:
The man who won the lottery is outside.
(The adjective clause (highlighted) identifies the man.)
(2) To tell us something interesting about it.
For example:
Inspector Smith, who won the lottery, is outside.
(The adjective clause (highlighted) tells us something interesting about Inspector Smith.)
<h2>More Examples of Relative Pronouns</h2><h3>In each of these examples, the relative pronoun is bold and the adjective clause is highlighted.</h3>
- The girl who stole your phone is outside. (The relative pronoun "who" heads an adjective clause that identifies "the girl.")
- I rode the bike that Jack gave me back home (The relative pronoun "that" heads an adjective clause that identifies "the bike.")
- Mrs Miggins, who owns a pie shop, is outside. (The relative pronoun "who" heads an adjective clause that tells us something interesting about "Mrs Miggins.")
- I rode my bike, which now had a dozen bent spokes, back home. (The relative pronoun "which" heads an adjective clause that tells us something interesting about "my bike.")
