Prior to Dee leaving home, the everyday objects in her household were just that- everyday objects. She took no special notice of any of them. However, once she returns home, all of these objects represent great culture significance to her. She is incredibly enthused about how great the wooden benches and old quilts are because she thinks it is in-style to be in touch with her own culture.

Answer:

The name Dee represents the ancestral heritage to the narrator.

The narrator is the mother of the two daughters in the story "Everyday Use" written by Alice Walker. The two sisters Maggie and Dee are very distinct from each other. The younger one was Dee whose name was symbolic of the hardships and struggles which their ancestors had gone through. On the other hand, for Dee, her culture was a means to preserve it and keep it for reference in the future.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

This is an example of an idiom

Explanation:

An idiom is a saying that doesn't mean what it's literally saying

So basically what I'm saying is that the quote isn't telling you to count your lucky stars.

The literal meaning is to express thankfulness or gratitude for one's good luck while avoiding a bad situation.
