i already have. i still dont understand it. ill send you what i wrote down
“He has refused” “He has forbidden” “He has refused” “He has called” “He has dissolved” “He has refused” “He has endeavored” “He has obstructed” “He has made” “He has erected” “He has kept” The long list of grievances reads like a hammers blow because of the parallel structure. “He has” been repeated countless times in the sentence.
Answered by Ms. Sue
That's right. That's an example of parallelism -- using the same or similar words over and over.
Answered by Ms. Sue
What is the main idea of the Declaration of Independence? How does this parallelism help emphasize that idea?
