Wednesday – What is the correct sentence? – Mini contest #14
Hello SteemKids and Parents!
Last week we took a closer look at "homophones,” and if you can remember, it is words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings.
Today on the agenda will be “contronyms.”
These are words that not only have two meanings but also two opposite meanings. Our English teacher explained to us that they are words with an "identity crisis."
Let’s take the word “left” and two examples.
• They left for the concert (gone)
• There are only two left (still available)
Contronyms are also known as "auto-antonyms" or "Janus words," and the best way for me is to learn them by closing my eyes and then to picture them in contrasting scenarios.
Good luck!
It is time for the results of contest #13.
Just a reminder that the answer is sent to the admin of the community prior to the contest.
Now, what is the correct sentence?
“Your warmth and kindness feel like home and your hugs fill our lives.”
And another week without a winner.
I see where this is heading… To a record prize setting!
Time to play!
The contest
I am going to give you a scrambled sentence that you must unscramble. In other words, by using all the words, you must place the words in the correct order so that they form a sentence that makes sense.
How to participate?
- You can reply to this post by posting your sentence, or you can write a quality post of 300+ words with the sentence in it. By writing a post, you can double your earnings if you are a winner.
- You can only enter once
What is up for grabs?
The first correct answer will take home 8 STEEM and if you have written a post I will double the winnings and you can take away 12 STEEM.
Just to be fair, the correct answer is send to the admin of the community prior to the start of the game.
The sentence and the winner will be announced next week on Wednesday; therefore, make sure you don't send in your answer later than Tuesday 23:59 UTC.
If there is no winner, the prize will increase by 2 STEEM each time until there is one.
Here is your scrambled sentence which consist out of 12 words.
Until next week, keep unscrambling!
