I stood by the duke at the door, and I see that every man that went in had his pockets bulging, or something muffled up under hi

s coat—and I see it warn't no perfumery, neither, not by a long sight. I smelt sickly eggs by the barrel, and rotten cabbages, and such things; and if I know the signs of a dead cat being around, and I bet I do, there was sixty-four of them went in. How does Huck’s use of dialect to describe the setting affect this part of the story?

Answer:

"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is a story that was written by American author Mark Twain and it was first published in England in 1884 and later in America in 1885. This excerpt in the question comes from chapter 23 of the book and it narrates the events that Huck and his friends must face during a particularly sticky situation when the townspeople file into the place where Huck and his friends are, to exact revenge.

As you read the excerpt, the reader cannot help but notice the strong and constant use of dialect, words that grammatically speaking might not fit what would be considered correct structure, but that play a really big part in generating emotions and sensations.

In this case, the use of dialect on the part of Huck shows two things: first, that he is a really smart boy and he immediately realizes the true atmosphere and the danger that is beginning to gather around him and his companions. The second, and most important, is that the dialect Huck uses helps to incrase the tension, and the suspense, regarding what will happen next. We know that the townspeople are not going with good intentions, but are rather violent, and Huck expresses that tension, and that uncertainty as to what will come next, through the use of dialectical expressions.

A)The adjective "local" is formed by adding a suffix to a free morepheme.
slega [8]

Answer:

a). False

b). singular only

Explanation:

a). The adjective 'local' which denotes 'from or in a nearby location' exemplifies a base word. In this word, the suffix '-al' is joined with a bound morpheme 'loc-' to make it meaningful. Bound morphemes cannot stand on their own to convey meaning and thus, it requires another suffix or prefix to accomplish its meaning. Thus, the statement is false as the 'local' itself is a root word used with various suffixes to derive words like locally, localized, locality, etc.

b). Grammatically, <u>the noun 'news' is considered singular, as well as, uncountable and therefore, it carries a singular verb</u>. It remains the same irrespective of the singular or plural context in which it is being used. It doesn't carry an indefinite article as it specifies the number of the noun. The noun 'news' varies its meaning in the context which it is used in. However, the form remains 'singular only.'
