Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

No, possessive nouns cannot be used as adjectives.

Explanation:

Possessive noun shows the ownership and possessive adjective defines and modifies the noun to show the ownership. Possessive adjectives are not formed by adding apostrophe + s to possessive noun.

Possessive adjectives are my, your ,his, her, its, our, their. The possessive pronouns that replace the noun are: mine, yours, hers, his, its.

For example: his head is big. (His is possessive adjective)

That money is ours. (Ours is possessive pronoun)

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer: Possessive nouns have function as adjectives

Explanation:

Possessive nouns are showing ownership and they have an apostrophe or ''s'', or both. For example: Today's weather, Mary's book, Dog's food, Owls' eyes.

Because of that, they function as adjectives but they are still possessive nouns.

''I can't find Mary's book.''

Mary's is a possessive noun ( because it's telling us that the book is Mary's) and Mary's is functioning as an adjective and modifying the noun book.

Examples for possessive adjectives: This is our house.

Hey, that's my phone.

Possessive adjectives list: your, my, his, her, its, our, their. Possessive adjectives can replace noun to show ownership of something.

A) He warns people against bitterness and hatred. B)He states that 1963 is a beginning, not an end. C) He gives examples of denied citizenship rights. D)He states that people should not be guilty of wrongful deeds.

Answers

Answer:

C) He gives examples of denied citizenship rights.

Explanation:

Dr. King states that Black people in America do not enjoy the freedoms they are meant to enjoy (granted by the Constitution). They also do not enjoy full citizenship. In order to show how this is the case, Dr. King gives examples of denied citizenship rights. Jim Crow laws in particular were very restrictive of rights for African Americans. They did not allow them to move freely, study in the school they desired or marry the person they loved.

I'm mostly think of C. because blacks didnt have rights at that time

Why becoming an adult at the age of 18??

Answer:

Explanation:
