Explanation:

• Spelling:
• "werthy" → "worthy" (common spelling rule for words ending with -thy).
• "miths" → "myths" (changing -th to -yth for the correct word meaning stories).
• "sware" → "swore" (past - tense form of the verb "swear").
• Idiom:
• "wouldn't budge" means "wouldn't move or change position".
• Sentence Types:
• "Some tales say the wizard Merlin helped Arthur, but others don't include Merlin at all." is a compound sentence (two independent clauses joined by "but").
• "Because he freed the sword from the stone, Arthur proved he was the true king." is a complex sentence (dependent clause "Because he freed the sword from the stone" and independent clause "Arthur proved he was the true king").
• Verb Forms:
• "All the Knights of the Round Table swore oaths to act honorably." (past - tense of "swear").
• "The knights always showed mercy like they had sworn to." (past - participle form "sworn").
• Word Choice:
• "In some stories, there are two swords named Excalibur." ("there" indicates existence).
• "Their wielder is the legendary King Arthur." ("their" shows possession).
• "They're often thought to be enchanted." ("they're" is a contraction of "they are").
