Most showers usually have between 20 and 40 guests (sometimes larger depending on the wedding party size). Be careful not to duplicate the guest list if you are having more than one shower, since forcing a guest to buy several gifts can become a financial burden on anyone.
Lesson Summary. The main idea of a sentence or passage is its primary point or argument. An implied main idea is the primary point of a sentence or passage that is not clearly stated, but instead deduced from surrounding details.
A writer will state his/her main idea explicitly somewhere in the paragraph. That main idea may be stated at the beginning of the paragraph, in the middle, or at the end. The sentence in which the main idea is stated is the topic sentence of that paragraph. The topic sentence announces the general theme (or portion of the theme) to be dealt with in the paragraph. Although the topic sentence may appear anywhere in the paragraph, it is usually first â and for a very good reason.
