Ms. Sue, how long are you usually on this site? like, all day?
I'm usually on Jiskha from off and on from about noon to 11 p.m. Eastern Time.
To correctly identify the bold part of the sentence, let's break down the sentence:
"The speaker in 'haiku' by Basho is making an observation."
In this sentence, we have the phrase "The speaker in 'haiku' by Basho." This phrase acts as the subject of the sentence, as it is what the sentence is about. The remainder of the sentence, "is making an observation," provides further information about what the subject is doing.
The bold part of the sentence is "the speaker in 'haiku' by Basho." It is the subject.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. simple subject.
