Amelioration is the process of improving or the betterment of something whereas pejoration is the worsening of the situation or thing. Thus, the opposite of pejoration is amelioration.
1. Analytic language is the use of words rather than inflections to show grammatical relationships. It uses whole words, rather than parts of it to show the grammatical relationships in the sentence.
2. Morpheme is the smallest unit of semantic or grammatical meaning. It includes words, base, affixes or inflections. It is not identical to a word, in that it doesn't stand alone on its own while a word may sometimes stand alone.
3. Verbal is the word or phrase that are formed from a verb but they act as nouns or adjectives. They can either be a participle, an infinitive or even a gerund.
4. Declension is the inflection of nouns. They are those class of nouns which are deflected in a particular way. It is the variation of a form of a noun, pronoun or adjectives by which its syntactic function is expressed.
This group of words is a sentence.
Answer: Tom pretends that whitewashing is fun, which makes Ben interested in doing it himself.
Explanation:
<em>The Adventures of Tom Sawyer</em> is an 1876 novel written by Mark Twain. The story is about a boy called Tom, who grows up by the Mississippi River.
On one occasion, Tom was punished by his aunt and had to whitewash the garden fence. Tom, of course, did not want to do it, but pretended that this is a rather interesting activity. When Ben passed by the fence and mocked him for having to paint the fence, Tom convinced him that this job is a unique opportunity:
"Like it? Well, I don't see why I oughtn't to like it. Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?"
Tom pretended that whitewashing is fun, which increased Ben's interest for it:
"Say, Tom, let me whitewash a little."
Tom even made Ben give him an apple as a reward for letting him accompany him in this interesting activity.
The poem relates to literary topos theatrum mundi, which states that there is no free-will, and world is just a God's play, where he writes roles for each of us, and we are determined to behave in a manner which was chosen for us.
Poem shows life as a process where our social roles are set, and the outcome of life is determined. The person described in poem doesn't seem to have his own thoughts, he just adapts to the current stage of "life schedule".
Theatrum mundi also reverses the usual demand that theatrical plays should reflect he life, by stating that it is the life which reflects theatrical play. Although it may be arguable to agree totally with the concept of world as a theatrical play, if we narrow the perspective, it is true, that we all act to adapt to society. We behave differently among our parents, grandparents, teachers, classmates, friends. On the internet we too are trying to shape our image in a manner which we think will be desirable towards our target group. Clothes, gadgets and other possessions (save for it's inherent utility) are chosen based on how they will be perceived by society. They are what costume is for an actor, while the way of talking, eating, gestures, what we say or don't say are acting itself.
To conclude I agree the message is important for me as what is described in it affects me and every person i meet. As for the broader perspective, I do believe that there is cause and effect between relationship between everything what is happening, therefore I agree that everything what I will do and what will happen is predetermined, maybe by the laws of the universe, maybe by the God, but there is no way of changing it. However since i don't know the future I think that all this predeterminism is just a fun fact not affecting my life.
Ok those are just some loose thoughts and facts. But i hope that they help :)
