What does the anaphora add to the asyndeton, “we saw no houses, no smoke, no footprints...”?

English
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]4 years ago
5 0

As being used here, the asyndeton gives the reality that the list of what is not on the island is endless or infinite. The anaphora adds punch or climax, that nothing having to do with society can be seen. Not only that, the list is not only endless, it is ardently void of anything.

Can someone write this using modern language:
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

I have often thought it was a very unlucky circumstance in love, in every other situation in life, telling the truth is not only the safest, but actually by far the easiest way of talking, a lover is never under greater difficulty in acting, or more puzzled for expression, if when his passion is sincere, and his intentions are honorable. I do not think that it is very difficult for a person of ordinary capacity to talk of love and fondness which are not felt, and to make vows of being dependable and faithfulness which are never intended to be performed, if he is villain enough to practice such hateful conduct; but to a man whose heart glows with the rules of integrity and truth, and who sincerely loves a woman of friendly actions, elegance of attitude,, and greatness of manners—to someone, in such problems, I can assure you, my dear, with my own feelings at this time,

engagement

is indeed. There is alot of worries and anxiety crowds into my mind when I am in your company, or when I sit down to write to you, i dont know what to speak or what to write, I am altogether at a loss.

There is one rule which It would make me very happy if you would send me a letter when you are ready.

my heart is devoted to you a woman that i love and respect , and is serious goal to promote your happiness; if these are qualities you wish in a husband, I hope you will ever find them in your real friend and sincere lover. and I will always be with you, and that is, honestly the plain truth. so i promise to you i am not lying because that would be unmanly of me, I am surprised that any one so noble, or so generously in passion as pure love. No, my dear E. I will never endeavor to gain your love by lying. If you will be so kind and so generous to marry me ,and be your companion, your best friend through life, there is nothing in the world that will give me greater happiness ; but I shall never think of purchasing your love by any lies , . There is one thing, my love, which i Eagerly request of you, and it is this: that you would soon either put an end to my hopes by refusing me , or cure me of my fears by marrying me.

What are the English equivalents for the following Latin and Anglo-Saxon forms?
Free_Kalibri [48]
Modern English words can derive from many different sources. Many have roots that are Latin or Greek.

The word diabolos is from the Greek word meaning "devil". In Latin it is commonly spelled as diabolus or diabulus. The Anglo-Saxon word <em />deofol has the same meaning. The modern English word is devil.

Presbyter is late Latin and borrowed from the Greek word 'presbyteros'. The Anglo-Saxon word preost as the same meaning. In modern English, we use the word priest.

In Latin, the word ministrare is a conjucation of the word for minister. The Anglo-Saxon word mynster has a different spelling than the modern English word with the same meaning. The modern English word is "minister". 

The verb praedicare in Latin means "to preach". The word praedician doesn't seem to exist in Anglo-Saxon dictionaries (mine included). I would determine that the modern English word would either be the verb "preach" (as the Latin one is) or the noun "preacher".

This exercise was slightly misleading with its information, but I hope you enjoy learning the history of the English language!
