Based on the excerpt, what is the contextual meaning of the word jostle? Although, as we walked to the Cova through the tough pa

rt of town, walking in the dark, with light and singing coming out of the wine-shops, and sometimes having to walk into the street when the men and women would crowd together on the sidewalk so that we would have had to jostle them to get by, we felt held together by there being something that had happened that they, the people who disliked us, did not understand.

“To jostle” means to push, elbow, or bump against someone roughly while moving, typically in a crowd, in order to move past people or get more space. When the narrator says "...so that we would have had to jostle them to get by", they mean they had to push women and men in the crowd in order to be able to move forward.

Jostle means to push or elbow someone so when they "had to jostle them to get by" they had to push the crowd out of the way.

motikmotik

Answer:

Explanation:

Hobby for future

Hobby is a term referred to something that we do during our free time , but not many people know that hobbies can also be turned into a key for a better future .

When you keep on doing something you get better at it . For instance if your hobby is drawing and you do atleast one drawing a day then you will eventually get better at it . Just like that practise can make us achieve anything. But to get better at something doing only practise won't help , you should also try to get to the next level at it . For example if your hobby is drawing then the next level for you is oil pastel drawing , poster colour drawing then painting . Just that way improvements should be done . Studies are not the only way to achieve success . There are many ways , and one of them is doing our level best in the field we are interested.

How are ex nihilo stories different from earth diver stories?
Ede4ka [16]

The correct answer is A. Ex nihilo stories explain the creation of Earth from nothingness, while earth diver stories explain the creation of Earth from water.

Explanation:

A creation myth refers to a narrative that is usually linked to cultural elements and aim at explaining the way the world was created, including different elements on it such as animals, plants or humans. Additionally, there are different types of creation myths narratives according to their features and content. In the case of ex nihilo stories or myths, the Earth and everything on it is created from nothingness usually as the result of the actions or thoughts of a god or divine being, which means before the creation of these elements there was just nothingness. On the other hand,  in Earth diver myths or narratives different elements are created from water especially as a divine force sends an animal or similar to find sand or mud which is used to create land. Considering this, it can be concluded the difference between ex nihilo and earth diver stories is that " Ex nihilo stories explain the creation of Earth from nothingness, while earth diver stories explain the creation of Earth from water".
