Answer:

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was one of the first novels written in "American English" particularly the ones spoken by the narrator and main protagonist of the story. The "Pike County Dialect" and its variations, is the language in which Huck and most of the important characters to the plot, (like his father, like Tom and Jim, Aunt Polly, Judith Loftus) expressed themself. The function of this dialect is to give us the reality of a marginalized and impoverished entity that is palpable throughout the entire book, the author gives this dialect a leading role that is seeks to give us that realism necessary to understand the concept, that happen along to the Mississippi River, and brings us closer to details of southern society, such as racism and the superstition of the slaves in that time, Jim is a fugitive slave  who flees seeking his freedom, and Huck captured by his evil father, who takes him to live in a hut down river, there Huck remains captive, but manages to escape in a raft  they find each other and the two undertake a dangerous journey and live many adventures together.

I think this may be the case because the translator who I assume is the journalist raised his voice at Iqbal as did the mother to Iqbal's answer to the question about what happened after the shot was fired and the fact that Iqbal was " crying and confused" may mean he has some guilt in the affair. </span>

Amiraneli [1.4K]

This excerpt is from 'Don't Eat Fortune's Cookie'.

Explanation:

  • In his speech, he says, "My advisor was a truly gifted professor, an archaeologist named William Childs."
  • " The thesis tried to explain how the Italian sculptor Donatello used Greek and Roman sculpture — which is actually totally beside the point, but I’ve always wanted to tell someone".
  • "God knows what Professor Childs actually thought of it, but he helped me to become engrossed. More than engrossed: obsessed. When I handed it in I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life: to write senior theses. Or, to put it differently: to write books."

But on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after
Goryan [66]

From the above excerpt, it can be learned about the ancient Greeks that:

  They believed the gluttony and disobedience are negative traits.

They believed that the gods punish people for acting badly.

They believed in the importance of strength in battle.

Odysseus tells about his men who ate the sheep and drank the wine until their stomach was full. After they were full the Cicones' army attacked them which was a consequence of the butcher nature of his men. Greeks had the idea that the punishment for gluttony and disobedience is sure to come. They believed that one should be brave and fearless while fighting in a battle. For them, the God was omniscient who rewarded or punished people of their dead.
