What do you mean by phrase?

A phrase in grammar refers to a group of words or a single word that functions as a grammatical unit. The English phrase "the extremely happy squirrel," for instance, is a noun phrase that also incorporates the adjective phrase "very happy."

Phrases might be made up of only one word or an entire sentence. Phrases are frequently examined as constituents or other syntactic structural units in theoretical linguistics.

The term "phrase" has a different meaning when used in linguistics than it does in everyday speech. A phrase is typically a collection of words with a common meaning or other importance, such as "all rights reserved," "economical with the truth," "kick the bucket," and similar expressions.

According to theories of syntax, a phrase is any group of words—or perhaps just one word—that has a specific function within the syntactic framework of a sentence.

It need just serve as a full grammatical unit in the phrase under consideration. It is not necessary for it to have any additional value or meaning.

"I cannot bear men who believe that women serving in the Palace are bound to be frivolous and wicked. Yet I suppose their prejudice is understandable. After all, women at Court do not spend their time hiding modestly behind fans and screens, but walk about, looking openly at people they chance to meet. Yes, they see everyone face to face, not only ladies-in-waiting like themselves, but even Their Imperial Majesties (whose . . . names I hardly dare mention), High Court Nobles, senior courtiers, and other gentlemen of high rank. In the presence of such exalted personages, the women in the Palace are all equally brazen, whether they be the maids of ladies-in-waiting, or the relations of Court ladies who have come to visit them, or housekeepers, or latrine-cleaners, or women who are of no more value than a roof-tile or a pebble. Small wonder that the young men regard them as immodest! Yet are the gentlemen themselves any less so? They are not exactly bashful when it comes to looking at the great people in the Palace. No, everyone at Court is much the same in this respect.”

rating on this day?​

Answers

Answer:

The term tropical cyclone is used to refer to a storm system characterized by a closed circulation around a low pressure center that produces strong winds and abundant rainfall. Tropical cyclones extract their energy from the condensation of humid air, producing strong winds. They are distinguished from other cyclonic storms, such as low polar ones, by the heat mechanism that feeds them, which turns them into "warm core" storm systems.

Spain built "presidios" on the borders of New Spain to convert Native Americans to Christianity. These presidios were internment facilities, where indigenous people were forced to abandon their cultural interests and religions and convert to Cirstianism, adopting Christian concepts that should be followed at any cost. This was done because the Spaniards believed that indigenous people were not evil, but rather ingenious souls that could be purified if forced into Christianity.

(essay) How do the government address social inequality?Name some programs and initiatives that address this concern.

Answers

Answer:

Most governments address the problem of social inequality through transfer payments programs.

Explanation:

Transfer payment programs are simply government mechanisms that transfer wealth from those who hold more wealth, or earn more income, to those who earn less income, or hold less wealth.

These programs can come in a wide array of forms: from negative income taxes, to minimum guaranteed income, to non-monetary payments like food stamps or social securities.

The success or failure of each of these types of programs is subject of constant study and controversy among economists and other social scientists, and are often one of the main topics in political campaigns.
