Evidance
Vibration (noun)
1. Meaning: The word "vibrations" refers to vibrations or waves that occur in the context of the sentence. In the paragraph you provided, this word is used to describe how the vibrations from the subway created cracks and holes sized to fit a mouse.
2. Morphological: Morphology refers to the internal structure of words. "Vibrations" is the plural form of the noun "vibration." In English, to make a plural noun from a singular noun like "vibration," the suffix "-s" is often added to form the plural.
3. Syntactic: Syntax deals with how words are used in sentences. In the sentence "the vibrations of subway trains tend to create rat-size cracks and holes," "vibrations" is used as the subject of the sentence and is followed by the prepositional phrase "of subway trains," which
describes the source or origin of the vibrations. Furthermore, "tend to create" is a verb phrase that describes the action performed by
"vibrations.“
Noticed (verb)
4. Meaning: The word "Noticed" is the past tense of the verb "notice." In the context of the sentence, "noticed" refers to the act of seeing or noticing something that has happened in the past. In the sentence you provided, this word is used to describe that the writer noticed something.
5. Morphological: Morphology refers to the internal structure of words. "Noticed" is the past tense of the verb "notice." To form the past tense in English, the suffix "-ed" is often added to the base verb. Therefore, "noticed" is the past tense of "notice.“
6. Syntactic: Syntax deals with how words are used in sentences. In sentences that include the word "noticed," such as "and, I have noticed, thousands of no longer charged AA batteries," "noticed" is used as a verb describing the action of the writer noticing thousands of no longer charged AA batteries. It is the part of the phrase that provides additional information about what the writer noticed.
Evidance
Freely (adverb)
1. Meaning: The word "freely" refers to an action performed without restriction or hindrance, with freedom or without hindrance. In the context of the sentence, "freely" is used to describe how the rats consumed the wasted food without constraint.
2. Morphological: it is noted that the word "freely" is a form of adverb produced by adding the suffix "-ly" to the root word "free.“
3. Syntactic: In sentences that include the word "freely," such as "The rats eat freely from the waste," "freely" is used as an adverb describing how the rats consume food. It modifies the verb "eat" and illustrates that the rats do so without inhibition or restriction.
