Answer:
Self-esteem refers to the degree to which we evaluate ourselves positively. While self-confidence makes you feel better about your abilities, it can also lead you to vastly overestimate those abilities.

The author uses metaphor, personification, hyperbole, and onomatopeias as it is explained below.
- A metahpor is used to make readers understand the connection between the two words but doesn't literally make sense. For example: a) You are <u>frozen</u> as the <u>clouds</u>, b) You are <u>far and sweet</u> as <u>the high clouds</u>.
- Personification which means to give human characteristics to inanimate objects, example: I dare <u>touch</u> the rim of<u> your brightness.</u>
- Hyperbole: is an outrageous exaggeration that emphasizes a point. It tends toward the ridiculous or the funny. In this sense, the author states: I <u>leap</u> beyond <u>the winds</u>, For my throat is keen as a sword. Sharpened on a hone of ivory.
- Onomatopoeia. My throat sings the joy of my eyes
In the first part of the novel "Things Fall Apart" , written by Achebe, the author narrates the events in an objective way, without giving personal opinion of showing feelings and symphathy. The readers are given with the possibility to provide the text with his or her own emotions. The readers also have the decision about the characters. It is through the readers' perspective wheter the characters are estimable or even if their behaviour is justified. This purely objective tone appears through out all the first part of tve text. The tone in the first part is also supported by the use of native fables, parables and words which gives the story a rustic and quaint tone. It is towards the end when the author, Achebe, starts showing feelings towards the Umuofia.
