Silenced
Hi teachers. I have several question to this sentence:
The two dogs sat motionless by the door, silenced by the sound of pounding rain.
- Is this sentence correct, natural, and well-structured?
- Does 'silenced' seem natural to combine with 'motionless' here?
- Also, does 'silenced' mean that the dogs are silent or that they maybe are barking but the sound of that is drowned out by the sound of rain?
