Question

Quiz Read the sentence.
The American has a long-standing love for African birds.
7. Which words in the sentence function as adjectives?
A has, for
B American, long-standing
c long-standing, African
D American, birds

Answer 1

The answer should be b or c

Answer 2

Answer:

c long-standing, African

Explanation:

Adjectives name attributes and describe or modify nouns. In the given sentence, the adjective long-standing modifies the noun love, and the adjective African modifies the noun birds.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because has is a verb, for is a preposition and American functions a noun - meaning American people.
