What's up with all the Ninja questions?
Seemed is not conditional on anything. It "links" the predicate nominative ('happy' ) to its subject (pirates).
Two things:
Sneaked is the past tense of sneak.
Commas go between independent clauses (that are joined with coordinating conjunctions).
A lso, "seemed" seemed fine to me.
Great quiz. You put a lot of work into creating it. Thank you very much.
In response to an earlier comment, I don't think there is anything wrong with question #6, "The pirates SEEMED quite happy." "SEEMED" is indeed a linking verb. It does not appear to be a conditional verb to me.
Again, thanks a lot.
I enjoyed the quiz. Please revise answers for question #6 "The pirates SEEMED quite happy." The verb "seemed" is actually a conditional verb. I found that this question did not have an absolute answer.
