Describe how the Navajo Code was created. Provide and explain one example of how a phrase was changed and one example of how
Rashid [163]

The Navajo code was created by Philip Johnston. His father was a missionary, who spent years on a Navajo reservation, allowing Philip to grow up in contact with the language of the Navajo people, which made him learn this language fluently. The Navajo language was very complex, difficult to pronounce and write, which meant that very few people in the world, apart from the Navajos, could understand and learn that language.

Thus, the Navajo language became ideal for messages to be transmitted during the Second World War, without the enemy's army being able to decipher it.

The Navajo code was assembled by a set of Navajo words, where each word symbolized a phrase or other words in the English language.

An example is the word SO-A-LA-IH. In Navajo, this word means "star", but in the Navajo code it symbolized that the message provided was destined for Brigadier General Americano, since his insignia was a star.

Where do trees grow when a timberline is present?
deff fn [24]

The weather above the timberline is too cold and possibly too dry for trees to grow and take root. Desert tree lines are common in and near deserts. The soil is too dry for the trees to take root and get the water and nutrients they require. Desert-Alpine tree lines are environments where the elevation is too high and the soil too dry to foster tree growth.</span>

The issue of free silver (to increase the amount of currency in circulation) was championed in the election of 1896 by _________
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

William Jenings Bryan

Explanation:

By the time of the 1896 election, the american public was divided between people who supported the gold standard, and those who supported the adoption of silver as back-up for the US Dollar. This position was known as bimetalism. William Jenings Bryan was part of the latter group.

He supported silver because it would increase the money supply and he thought that more money in the economy would increase the standard of living. In a way, this is a form of expansionary monetary policy that aims at invigorating the economy by increasing the amount of curreny people have on their hands.
