Read the sentences. in 1903, two brothers made history by flying an airplane at kitty hawk. their names were orville and wilbur wright. which sentence combines these two sentences with an appositive phrase? in 1903, two brothers, who were orville and wilbur wright, made history by flying an airplane at kitty hawk. flying an airplane at kitty hawk with his brother orville, wilbur wright made history in 1903. in 1903, orville and wilbur wright made history by flying an airplane at kitty hawk. in 1903, two brothers, orville and wilbur wright, made history by flying an airplane at kitty hawk.

The answer to your question would be that the sentence that combines the selected sentences with an appositive phrase is the following one: In 1903, two brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, made history by flying an airplane at Kitty Hawk.

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. An appositive which is non-essential (its information is not relevant to the meaning of the sentence) is always offset with commas. In this case, the appositive "Orville and Wilbur Wright" renames the NP "two brothers".

The sentence that combines the two sentences with an appositive phrase is the last one: "In 1903, two brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, made history by flying an airplane at Kitty Hawk".

Explanation: An appositive phrase is a noun phrase that is used to rename another noun or noun phrase which is beside the appositive. Appositive phases can be essential or nonessential. While essential appositive phrases are not separated from the rest of the sentence, nonessential appositive phrases are moved apart from the other elements in the sentence because they are found between commas. In the sentence "In 1903, two brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, made history by flying an airplane at Kitty Hawk" the appositive phrase is "Orville and Wilbur Wright" since it is renaming and identifying "two brothers". Moreover, it is a nonessential appositive phrase because it is separated from the rest of the sentence.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.
