Do this tanka poem have clear structure or rhyme ?
mylen [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Tanka poems always have a structure, but not the rhyme.</u>

They follow the pattern of syllables which goes like this:

  1. line - 5 syllables
  2. line - 7 syllables
  3. line - 5 syllables
  4. line - 7 syllables
  5. line - 7 syllables

It is very similar to haiku, but a bit longer and more elaborate. It also uses metaphors and allusions, and no punctuation.

<u>Even when translated on English it doesn't seem to us tanka has a structured form, we must know that on the original Japanese version it is structured with the model showed above.</u>

Please answer this correctly
frutty [35]

Answer:

The second sentence in the 1st paragraph!!!

Explanation:

"Her romantic mind was like tiny boxes, one within another, that come from the puzzling East, however many you discover there is always one more; and her sweet mocking mouth had one kiss on it that Wendy could never get, though it was there, perfectly conspicuous in the right-hand corner."

Choose examples of Igbo words from the novel and, in at least two hundred words, discuss the impact of those foreign words on to
djyliett [7]

Things Fall Apart illustrates many different aspects of Igbo culture. For one, it shows us on may occasions they way they view religion. They are polytheistic, which means they worship many gods. Their gods and goddesses govern different aspects of the world and daily life, such as the earth goddess, Ani.

Different rituals and customs go along with each god. We can see this in the week of peace, which is observed to honor Ani so she will bless the crops. In addition, some of the gods have Oracles. These are basically their mouthpiece on earth. The Oracles will sometimes be possessed by their god, and the god will speak through them and tell the clan what they need to do.

The novel also explores non-religious aspects of Igbo culture. For example, we see and hear about the different ceremonies and rituals that surround courtship and marriage. Men almost always have more than one wife, an important cultural aspect. We also see how the clan conducts aspects of war, and some of how they keep and enforce law and order. Over the course of the novel we get to see a wide array of different aspects of Igbo life and culture. Not sure if this is at least two hundred words but hope it helps.

HELP PLEASE I HAVE 5 MINS PLZZZZ
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

"First, the plesiosaur is an air breather." is the line from the article that best disproves the plesiosaur theory. In the article, the author argues that because plesiosaurs were air breathers, they would need to come up for air more frequently than any sightings ever occur. As there are so few "sightings" every year and supposedly fewer now than ever, it is unlikely that Nessie is a plesiosaur.
