Who are the diasporas in the Indian subcontinent​

Answers

Answer:

Diasporas are descendants of Jewish populations that live outside of Israel.

Answer:

Diaspora is migration during the era of nationalism, not just a scattering of peoples but also a politico-emotional gathering in far-off lands under the sign of the nation. Diaspora is an idea that only makes sense in the era of nationalism. Prior to nationalism’s birth in the 19th century, people moved routinely. They traveled from their local places of birth and social sustenance to territories so far that they lost touch with their early homes. Most of these migrants did not think of themselves as part of a coherent diaspora, mainly because they did not see their places of origin as part of a national project. When people of the Indian subcontinent (desis, or those from the desh, homeland), for instance, commonly traveled to Southeast Asia or to Africa as part of the world of the Indian Ocean (that has been called the Afrasian Sea), there is no evidence that they saw themselves as part of a desi diaspora. [note 1] On the contrary, they took with them social practices, habits and materials from their homelands, moved to far-off locales and set to work in the construction of a new ethos, one that was defined in conversation with the materials and ideas that they found in those parts.

The ancient and early modern migrations of people from the Indian subcontinent are a prelude to the diaspora of the 19th century and after, but they are not a part of it. What defines the diaspora of the 19th century onwards, in the era of nationalism, is that as people left a homeland that was already seen as a “nation,” they continued to bear fond memories of that homeland and saw themselves as somewhat patriotic to it. Even though the word diaspora comes to us from the Greek for scattering (which implies any migration) and even though it is classically used to refer to the Jewish Diaspora after the destruction of the Temple in 70 C.E. [note 2], the concept in modern times refers specifically to the idea of a departure from a national homeland and a nostalgia for that homeland. Thus the two kinds of migration should not be conflated.

[3] He wanted to obtain enough savings to buy his freedom, which Robert King had promised him he could do for the same amount that King had paid for him. [4] When he had saved enough money, he bought his freedom from King and lived the rest of his life as a free man.

Which sentence in the paragraph is structured differently than the others?

Answers

Answer: [2] He faced insults and difficulties doing this; however, he was determined to continue making money, which he did.

Explanation:

Every sentence above comprises of two clauses with some being independent and others being dependent clauses. Sentence two is different from the rest in that it contains three clauses instead of two.

Two of those clauses are independent clauses and the third is a dependent clause. The two independent clauses are: " He faced insults and difficulties doing this" and "he was determined to continue making money". The dependent clause is, "which he did".

Answer:

B: sentence 2

He faced insults and difficulties doing this; however, he was determined to continue making money, which he did.

Answers

Shooting an Elephant is an essay by George Orwell in which he described that once he had to shoot an aggressive elephant when he worked as a police officer in Burma. The elephant is the central symbol of the story and it shows how colonialism corrupts the soul. The colonial officer does not want to kill the elephant but he had to do so to satisfy the expectations of his superiors.  This essay represents that the soul of policemen is corrupted by their duties as colonial functionaries. He further describes at a policeman becomes someone he isn't which is why people started hating him without knowing him as a person.  The real man beneath him does not want to shoot the elephant but the people only saw him as a colonial authority and expected him to shoot the elephant.

This essay exposes the conflict between the law and one's moral conscience as this pertains to British imperialism specifically. As he represented the British law, he had to suffer from the pain of killing an elephant which made him torn with terrible emotions at the sight of the elephant's death. The author narrates that the role of government in people's lives is huge because he had to act within the law and people started respecting him after he shoot the elephant but he was not going to forget about the death that he encountered.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is C. In time, of course, all issues get resolved, but not necessarily in the way you would like.

Explanation:

Option A. is not the answer because it has two independent clauses improperly joined by a comma. For this sentence to have correct punctuation, the ( , he) would need to be changed to either ( ;he), ( , and he), or (  . He).

Option B. is not the answer because (the following items;) is incorrectly punctuated. The sentence should have a colon placed after "the following item" to be correctly punctuated. The colon is used to introduce a list of items after the use of the words as follows, the following, or similar expressions. A colon is not used when the listed items are incorporated into the flow of the sentence.

Option D. is not the answer because the colon is used incorrectly. For the sentence to be correctly punctuated, the colon needs to become a semicolon. Semicolons are used to join two independent clauses, or two complete thoughts that could stand alone as complete sentences.

Thus, leaving Option C. as the correct answer to this question.

Our dance rehearsal, as you'll recall, was rescheduled for next Tuesday at six o'clock.

Explanation:

A comma (,) is a punctuation mark that is used to indicate a short pause or stop in a sentence. It is a soft pause, a smaller break as compared to a period or a full stop.

In the given sentence, the comma will be placed before and after the phrase "as you'll recall". This is because the phrase "as you'll recall" is an added detail about the already independent clause "our dance rehearsal was rescheduled for next Tuesday at six o'clock."

Thus, the correct sentence is-

a grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically what?

Answers

Answer:

A grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically correct.

Explanation:

A grammatical morpheme can be an entire word or simply a group of letters that helps show another word's grammatical category, tense, number, etc. The definition may be strange, but it is easily understood with an example:

- I watch TV yesterday.

Is the sentence above grammatically correct? No. And that is because the word "yesterday" indicates that the action expressed by the verb happened in the past, but the verb itself is missing the grammatical morpheme that indicates the past tense. In this case, since "watch" is a regular verb, the morpheme that is missing is -ed:

- I watched TV yesterday.
