1. This style fits him nicely.
2. This style fits in him nicely.

nicely.
5. This style looks good on him.
(Are they all grammatical and the same?)
6. She is not allowed out after dark.
(What is the part of speech of 'out'? Can we use 'darkness' instead of 'dark'?)
7. Practice makes perfect.
(Subject + Intransitive Verb + Adjective ....Is this analysis correct?)
I-5 Sentences 2 and 4 are not correct. The others are correct and the same in meaning.
6. Out is an adverb describing "is allowed". It tells where. Nope, darkness would not work there.
7. Practice = subject, makes is a transitive verb... practice is doing something to something else... perfect is short for perfection.. So "perfect" is the direct object.
1. This style fits him nicely. - This sentence is grammatically correct and means that the style suits him well or looks good on him.
2. This style fits in him nicely. - This sentence is not grammatically correct. The preposition "in" does not fit in this context. It should be replaced with "on."
3. This style becomes him nicely. - This sentence is grammatically correct but is less commonly used than the previous examples. It means that the style suits or enhances his appearance.
4. This style is suitable for him nicely. - This sentence is grammatically correct, but the word "nicely" should be placed after "suitable" to maintain better syntax. It means that the style is a good match for him.
5. This style looks good on him. - This sentence is grammatically correct and conveys the idea that the style suits him and enhances his appearance.
Regarding your other questions:
6. In the sentence "She is not allowed out after dark," the word "out" functions as an adverb modifying the verb "allowed." It indicates the direction or movement away from a particular place. In this case, it means she is not permitted to go outside.
Using "darkness" instead of "dark" would alter the meaning of the sentence. "After darkness" would mean after the period of time when it is dark, whereas "after dark" means after nightfall. So, they are not interchangeable in this context.
7. The analysis "Subject + Intransitive Verb + Adjective" is not entirely accurate for the sentence "Practice makes perfect." In this sentence, "practice" is the subject, "makes" is the transitive verb ("makes" requires an object, which is "perfect"), and "perfect" is the direct object, not an adjective. The sentence means that regular practice leads to perfection.
