The correct answer is C) The word in their own language for German was Deutsch, and it was misunderstood by English speakers.

German immigrants were referred to as the Pennsylvania Dutch because the word in their own language for German was Deutsch, and it was misunderstood by English speakers. In the beginning, it is obvious to think that American people already settled in the Pennsylvanian territories had confused the word "Deutsch" with the word "Dutch." Historians supposed that Germans corrected the Americans once and twice, but in the end, they accepted being called Pennsylvania Dutch instead of Pennsylvania Germans.

Reflect on why Rizal highlighted the Story of the Moth in the last chapter of his Memorias. What was the message intended by Riz
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1. The intended message was intended to alert the dangers of the obsession. This is because when we become obsessed with something we tend to ignore everything around us and act in an unreasonable and very dangerous way, which can cause us a lot of harm.

2. The moral of the story applies in today's society because we are increasingly obsessed with aesthetics, celebrities, erroneous politics, extremism, among other things.

3. The light symbolizes the danger disguised as something beautiful and attractive, but which is fatal.

Explanation:

The story told by Rizal is about a moth that becomes obsessed and attracted by the lit light of a lamp. The moth's obsession is so strong that he gets closer and closer to the lamp, ignoring all the advice for her to stay away. This ends up burning her wings and causing death. The moral of the story is that we must not let our obsession control our rationality and we must always reason whether what attracts us is really good for us.
