Not Hyperbole, not Idiom, not Metaphor, so it must be Personification

"A still tongue makes a wise head"   is an idiom. Option A is correct.

This saying may mean that someone who does not talk much, but listens to other people, probably has experience, knowledge and good judgement.

An idiom is a type figure of speech which should not be taken literally. It is established by usage that has a meaning not necessarily deductible from those of the individual words.

Idioms convey a particular sentiment, but they do not literally mean what the individual words themselves mean.

What can a motif contribute to, or become, when it gathers larger significance throughout a text?
sesenic [268]
I believe a motif can contribute to, or become a theme when it gathers larger significance throughout a text. A theme is what you generally write about in a literary piece, so if you develop a metaphor further, it may come to denote a theme of a work.

Which statement best describes how the theme of good vs. evil interacts with the theme of decaying southern culture in O'Connor'
Licemer1 [7]

The correct answer is "The grandmother represents old southern culture in the story because she is racist, selfish and evil but appears to be a good southern lady on the outside". "A Good Man Is Hard to Find," first published in 1953, is one of the most Flannery O'Connor's famous stories. O'Connor was a staunch Catholic, and like most of her stories, "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" are about good and evil and the possibility of divine grace. The grandmother gives great importance to being "a lady," and her ideas about what that means reflect an old-fashioned, somewhat upper-crust Southern mindset. All end up in her to associate being "good" with coming from a respectable family and behaving like a member of her social class.

How does holi bring people of different castes and religious into harmony and fraternity?​
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Holi: A Festival of harmony and Fraternity.

Explanation:

Holi is a festival celebrated in India and Hindu culture. It is a festival of colors. This festival is marked with strong relationships and brotherhood. On this festival, people who have differences forget about it and forgive one another and come together to celebrate the festival.

On the eve of Holi, people from different castes and religion come together to celebrate the festival with happiness and brotherhood. India is a country of varying culture but still festivals are celebrated with togetherness. Thus we can say that Holi is a festival of harmony and fraternity, where people from different caste, culture, and religion come together.
