Looking at this worksheet, I need to match each interjection (words like "Dear!", "Ouch!", "Shh!") with its correct function from the numbered list in the middle.
Let me go through each interjection one by one and match it to the right number:
Left column:
1. "Dear!" - This is used when you're surprised or pitying someone → matches #9 (Expressing pity or surprise)
2. "Eh?" - This is asking for repetition or expressing surprise → matches #2 (Asking for repetition, expressing enquire, surprise, inviting agreement)
3. "Ouch!" - This expresses sudden sharp pain → matches #8 (Expressing sudden sharp pain)
4. "Uh-huh" - This shows agreement or knowledge → matches #5 (Expressing agreement or knowledge)
5. "Um" - This shows hesitation → matches #7 (Expressing hesitation)
6. "Well" - This can introduce a remark → matches #14 (Expressing surprise, introducing a remark)
7. "Shh!" - This demands silence → matches #4 (Demanding silence)
8. "Boo!" - This expresses disapproval strongly → matches #6 (Expressing disapproval strongly)
9. "Ugh!" - This expresses disgust → matches #16 (Expressing disgust)
Right column:
1. "Er..." - This shows hesitation → matches #7 (Expressing hesitation)
2. "Oh!" - This expresses pity or sorrow → matches #10 (Expressing pity, sorrow, apprehension)
3. "hmm" - This shows thinking or slight disapproval → matches #13 (Expressing slight disapproval)
4. "Hey!" - This calls someone's attention → matches #3 (Calling someone's attention)
5. "Alas!" - This expresses pity or sorrow → matches #10 (Expressing pity, sorrow, apprehension)
6. "Mmm!" - This expresses pleasure → matches #11 (Expressing pleasure)
7. "Tut-tut" - This expresses disapproval → matches #13 (Expressing slight disapproval)
8. "Ah!" - This expresses appreciation or surprise → matches #12 (Expressing appreciation, surprise)
