Section A
Question 1
1.1 Phonology refers to the study of the sounds used in a language. It looks at how sounds
are organized and used to form words and sentences.
1.2 Phonology helps you notice differences in pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation
between English spoken in South Africa and Nigeria. For example, in South Africa, English
speakers may have a different accent or stress patterns compared to those in Nigeria.
1.3.1 The word "killing" in the sentence has a connotative meaning. It doesn't mean that his
shoes are literally killing him; it suggests that his feet are in extreme pain due to standing for
so long.
1.3.2
Sentence: The news about the lost child spread like wildfire
Justification: The word wildfire is used connotatively. It doesn’t mean that a literal fire is
spreading, but rather that the news is spreading very quickly.
, QUESTION 2
2.1 A suffix is added to the end of a word to change its meaning or grammatical role.
2.1.1 Devoted: The suffix "-ed" changes the verb "devote" into an adjective, meaning
someone who is dedicated or committed.
2.1.2 Digital: The suffix "-al" changes the noun "digit" into an adjective, meaning something
related to digits or technology.
2.1.3 Implicitly: The suffix "-ly" changes the adjective "implicit" into an adverb, meaning doing
something in an indirect way.
2.2
synonyms for the words in context:
2.2.1 Digested: Absorbed.
2.2.2 Occasional: Infrequent.
2.2.3 Chatting: Talking.
2.3
Conjoined words are compound words.
2.3.1 The name for conjoined words is compound words.
2.3.2
Grown-ups: Grown + ups.
Multitaskers: Multi + taskers.
2.4
2.4.1 The sentence "By the time they reach their 20s, the average student will have digested
30,000 hours of digital information." is a complex sentence.
2.4.2 It is a complex sentence because it has one independent clause ("the average student
will have digested 30,000 hours of digital information") and one dependent clause ("By the
time they reach their 20s"), which cannot stand alone.
