Choose the answer that shows how the word articulate would be hyphenated if it had to be divided at the end of a line. Group of answer choices artic-ulate arti-culate articul-ate

Arti-culate.

Explanation:

Hyphenating any word in cases of the word ending at the line is a common occurrence that happens all the time. But about how the hyphenation must be done or how the word should be separated has a bit of a rule into it.

First of all, any word that needs to be hyphenated must be done according to the syllable. For example, the word "purple" must be hyphenated as "pur-ple" with the different syllables put together and then separated by the hyphen. This division of words according to the syllables ensures that the sound or reading of the word isn't changed.

Also, the use of the hyphen mid-word at the end of a line must be done in such a way that the hyphen is in the first line with at least two letters before the hyphen. In this case, the word "articulate" has four syllables which can be divided as "ar/ti/cu/late".

Considering the options provided, "artic-ulate" and "articul-ate" are wrong for they mixed up the syllables. Thus, the correct answer is "arti-culate".

faulty parallelism is a grammar construction where there is no balance in the parts of a sentence they have a similar meaning but the grammar structure is not equivalent.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation's third president.

the problem with the first version is that the sentence:

"jefferson was both the writer of the declaration of independence"

presents jefferson as both a subject and an agent for the verb "write" because if he was "the writer" then the declaration of independence was written by him, besides that fact, the sentence presents a dependent clause.

while the second sentence:

he was the nation's third president.

presents a basic subject+verb+object structure

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in both sentences:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation third president.
