<span>The four men were stranded together on the same dinghy after their ship sank. They were absolute strangers at the outset but were forced to work together in order to survive. They quickly studied their situation and each took up a different role on the dinghy. Their initial banter was aimed at survival alone. As the men spent more time together on the dinghy, they attempted to get to know one another better. They even exchanged home addresses. However, after the dinghy was destroyed, it was every man for himself as all four men attempted to swim to shore. Their friendship disintegrated in a similar manner to their dinghy, giving the impression that their friendship was based on convenience alone.-plato</span>

"the tenant men scuffed home to the farms through the red dust." Which sentence best describes Steinbeck's diction here?
lesantik [10]
The diction of Steinbeck here in apparently describing the dustbowl conditions of the Dirty Thirties is speaking of "tenant men" or presumably men who were tenant farmers perhaps who were allowed to live on the land in return for working it and that they "scuffed"  their way home indicates that the dust was so thick they had to scuff but also perhaps that since they could barely make a living under the poor agricultural conditions they did not walk confidently but scuffed.
