Ask AI on The Internet
Question: Like all universities the world over, in line with your values, you had to quickly adapt in the face of the pandemic to offer your twenty-nine thousand or more students online and mask-to-mask tuition. This has not been easy for you, especially given the gap in content knowledge between those who are privileged to have access to data, devices, and internet and those who do not When listening to words, over and above the context in which a word has been used, syllabic stress also gives a clue whether a homonym has been used as a noun or a verb. Refer to the sentence “This has not been easy for you, especially given the gap in content knowledge between those who are privileged to have access to data, devices, and the internet and those who do not”. (a) State whether the word ‘content’ has been used as a verb or a noun and underline the syllabic stress. (2) (b) Construct another sentence in which the word ‘content’ shows a different meaning. Underline the syllabic stress and indicate whether the word has been used as a verb, noun or adjective. (3)
(a) In the sentence “This has not been easy for you, especially given the gap in content knowledge between those who are privileged to have access to data, devices, and the internet and those who do not,” the word "content" is used as a noun. The syllabic stress is on the first syllable: **con**tent. (b) Here is a sentence where the word "content" shows a different meaning: "He tried to **con**tent himself with the knowledge that he had done his best." In this sentence, "content" is used as a verb, with the syllabic stress on the second syllable: con**tent**.
