In the poem “Afterwards,” Hardy uses figurative language, including euphemism, to develop meaning and tone. What is the meaning
Ne4ueva [31]
In the poem "Afterwards," Hardy uses many euphemisms to refer to death. He never actually says the words die, dead, or death.

Instead, he says things like: "If I pass during..." Here, the term "pass" is replacing the word "die." He also uses the very wordy "When the Present has latched its postern behind my tremulous stay" (which basically means "When the present is behind me" or "When I am part of the past").

The effect of these euphemisms is to have a quiet, calming effect on the reader. If he constantly used the words "die" and "death" throughout the poem, the dreamlike quality of the poem would be altered.

Instead, using terms like "afterward" and all the other euphemisms allows Hardy to discuss death without actually discussing it. In this way, he wonders what the rest of the world will do "after."

Answer:

Becoming an FBI Agent is a tremendously difficult and competitive process. It takes years of time, planning, and hard work to mold yourself into the kind of candidate the FBI is looking to hire. It's not going to happen overnight, and the hiring process itself can take a year or longer.

WHAT HAS THIS PANDEMIC DONE TO YOU???
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Depression, anger issues, losing friends, but at the same time learning neelw skills and having time to improve in many areas. But I think that the most important thing this pandemic has taught me is value every moment of your life and live it without worries because you never know how much one's going to last. Worry less what other think and focus on yourself, and spend time with your family because you never know when will be the last time you will see them again. And the last thing that I'm going to mention is something that everybody says, but not everyone is mature enough to understand: nothing is perfect. Don't try to have a perfect moment, instead have a goofy one because that will be the memory you will most remember. ;-)
