The listed characters of "The Crucible" can be ranked from 1-10 based on how much power they hold in Salem society in the following manner:

  1. Hale - 5
  2. Proctor - 3
  3. Danforth - 9
  4. Hawthorne - 8
  5. Abigail - 7
  6. Mary and the girls - 2

<h3>Rating the characters from "The Crucible"</h3>

This question requires a personal opinion as an answer, so feel free to change the numbers in case you disagree with any of the evaluations. Below, we explain why the characters were rated as stated above:

  1. Hale does hold some power, since he is a minister who investigates cases of witchcraft. However, he is not so powerful when compared to certain other characters inside Salem's society.
  2. As a man, Proctor has some power in society. But, in jail and accused of witchcraft, that power diminishes greatly. Unless he confesses to the crime, Proctor little to no influence.
  3. Danforth is perhaps the most powerful of the characters, for he is the one presiding the trials and deciding on other people's fates.
  4. Along with Danforth, judge Hawthorne also holds the power to decide whether people live or die.
  5. As a woman, Abigail's place in society is quite low. However, people choose to believe her accusations against others, which ends up giving her more power than she's ever had.
  6. Mary and the girls hold way less power than Abigail. They are perceived as hysterical and susceptible to being influenced by others.

Well, this is not true, but the opposite is also not true. 

<span>Structural linguists look for structure in language, so they would look at how words are composed of phonemes and morphemes. They are mostly working on current languages, but that's because they have access to them easily. When they can, they also study how those patterns evolved historically. De Saussure, the founder of Structural Linguistics is for example and important figure in historical linguistics.</span>

k0ka [10]

it is not a matter of inference

the reason for Tan believing that "nonstandard English is no less valid than standard English" is related to the fact that Standard English’  was considered as a  form of the English language, universal or common in the nineteenth century. By the 1930s, however, it was  associated with social class and was seen by many as the language of the educated. On the contrary, speakers from lower classes in the past and today, tend to use nonstandard dialect features  because they are more likely to have left education earlier, have non-professional jobs and  have no need to associate themselves with a ‘prestige’ way of speaking.
