English

Savatey [412]2 years ago

The language system is semantics. "Coke" v.s "Sprite." are two different words, so we are focusing on a word. When Anna paused, she was confused because to Melinda, A Coke means a Sprite in her vocabulary. She wanted to confirm the same meaning. Semantics involves a changing meaning depending on the person. She is visiting from Alabama, so the meanings may have chosen just like dialects. Thus, it cannot be phonology/morphology, syntax, or pragmatics.

Pick one of the passages that use Igbo words or phrases and, in at least one hundred words, identify the kinds of context clues
kolbaska11 [484]

In the story "Things Fall Apart", the Igbo ask how it is possible that the white man is able to call Igbo customs bad if he does not even know how to speak the Igbo language. There are some words in the Igbo language that can be easily understood by the context, for instance, the word "Ilo", in the text talks about an area where meetings are held, so this word is a place.

What is the connotative meaning of this line from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect"?
alukav5142 [94]
When you think about Thanksgiving cooking, typically you think of a rush to get everything done and to put all of the food onto the table so that everyone can eat. There is a tone of rushing and impatience being conveyed. Therefore, I would say that 4 is the most suitable answer. General Barker is clearly in a hurry and is under some stress. I hope this helps.
