Answer:

Austen foreshadows Lucy’s connection to Edward.

Austen uses gross understatement to describe how the Steele family knows Edward.

Explanation:

In chapter 21, Mrs. Jennings meets two young women, and Sir John welcomes them for a visit. Woman Middleton is vexed that he gives her small cautioning about visitors she has never met and whose habits are obscure.  

The two women are in vogue and respectful. They charm themselves to Lady Middleton by cherishing her kids.  

Sir John welcomes the Dashwoods to meet the new visitors. They decay. Be that as it may, they are compelled to consent to meet them the next day. When they meet the Steeles, they aren't awed by the senior sister. The more youthful one is pretty and sharp. Both are polite and great at satisfying other individuals.  

Lucy Steele acclaims Lady Middleton's sweetness. Marianne can't lie and abandons it to Elinor to give false compliments. Lucy loves the way vivacious the kids are, however Elinor claims she inclines toward calmer youngsters.  

Elinor is shocked by the nature in which Anne Steele asks them whether they miss Norland. She presumes they do since they most likely had more playmates there. Anne trusts lovers upgrade one's life insofar as they aren't filthy and dreadful.  

Elinor observes Anne to be indecent and Lucy to be unsophisticated. She doesn't want to advance her associate, however they feel in an unexpected way. The Dashwoods think that its hard to maintain a strategic distance from them inside and out.  

Sir John lets the Miss Steeles on his joke about Marianne's looming marriage and Elinor's respect for Edward. This prompts the audacious inquiry from the Steeles. Elinor is interested when Anne Steele uncovers they are familiar with Edward, for he has visited their uncle.

Themes of scarlet letter
amid [387]
There are many themes in the novel Scarlet Letter, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, and certainly the most important of them is the concept of sin and how it should be treated. As you already know, the heroine of this novel is Hester Prynne, who cheated on her husband and was thus condemned by the whole society, which didn't want to forgive her. Another theme is love, primarily between Hester and the priest, but also between Hester and her child. The position of women in society is another theme.
