Dear teachers,
1) Is this a complex sentence?
“He will write her a letter professing his love.”
2) What should I say her:
a) The hatred between the Montagues and Capulets results in the deaths / death of Tybalt and Mercutio, and Romeo and Juliet.
b) The hatred between the Montagues and Capulets ends up in the death of their only / sole two // their own children.
