1.) Which of the following sentences contains an adverb?

A. We saw the latest movie


B. They boarded the downtown bus.


C. I manage a service organization.


D. He arrived home yesterday.








2.)Which of the following is NOT a plural?





A. parenthesis


B. deer


C. fish


D. radii





Please Help me on this!!

1.) Which of the following sentences contains an adverb?
1. D - "yesterday" is an adverb.





2. A - "parenthesis" is the singular of "parentheses." B and C can be either singular or plural, and D is the plural of radius.





BTW: "Service", in this case, is an adjective, modifying the noun "organization." Remember that by definition an adjective modifies a noun and an adverb modifies a verb!
Reply:1. D) adverb %26gt; yesterday


2. A) parentheses would be plural
Reply:1. D.) He arrived home yesterday


2. A.) Parenthesis
Reply:1. D


2. A
Reply:1) A : Yesterday





2) A: Parenthesis
Reply:for the first one, D is the answer. "yesterday" is the adjective describing the verb "arrived", while the rest of the options are adjectives describing nouns.





the second one: i would guess parenthesis. im not totally sure on this one, but im about 80% positive that the plural of parenthesis is parentheses (-es instead of -is at the end).





hope this helps :)
Reply:I agree with Evanbart
Reply:D and B, on second thought D and A. Deer can be plural.
Reply:(yesterday) is the adverb in sentence D


the word radii is not a plural
Reply:A and A
Reply:D. "home" and "yesterday" are both adverbs


as they describe the "where" and "when" of


the action.


A.
Reply:1) d (yesterday because it modifies the verb arrived)


2) parenthesis
Reply:for question one....D


for question two...A


i could be wrong. but how often does that happen?
Reply:1) None of these sentences contains an adverb.


2) Parenthesis is always singular (plural parentheses)
