Correct answer: The word choice darkens the tone.

Evidenced by the use of specific language to describe the surroundings.

If the narrator choice was to use generic adjectives, <em>this would make the reader pay less attention and to feel disconnected</em> from the environment.

When an accurate representation of what is happening is offered to the reader, <em>is more natural</em> for him, <em>to get caught up in the narration. </em>

This build-up goes unnoticed, but unconsciously, the reader is setting every aspect of the scene in his mind, following every detail making him wonder if something is about to happen.

Example: the word "flickering", specially reflects this.

Describe three major ways that words in a language over change over time
Monica [59]

1. Things will get lost in translation, and will change meaning over time. 2. Different words will come to mean the same thing as something else. 3. The use of the word could be different from what it was originally meant to be.

'Every word has a variety of senses and connotations, which can be added, removed, or altered over time, often to the extent that cognates across space and time have very different meanings. The study of semantic change can be seen as part of etymology, onomasiology, semasiology, and semantics.'

Analyze Reread lines 97–103 bf "The Wanderer." How does the use of personification help develop the tone in this part of the poe
weeeeeb [17]

In lines 97–103 of "The Wanderer," the poet applied personification in describing the elements. The tone that this section of the poem impacted on it is that of;

  • Gloom

A gloomy and foreboding tone was added to the poem, "The Wanderer" when the poet used tumultuous words to describe the elements. An excerpt to illustrate this is;

<em />

<em>The tumbling snows stumble up the earth, </em>

<em>the clash of winter, when darkness descends.</em>

Personification is the act of ascribing human attributes to inanimate things.

The exile in describing the current realities described the winter as clashing, and the snows, tumbling. A picture of darkness was painted. All of these impact a gloomy tone to the poem.

Conclusively, the tone that was added to the poem is that of gloom.
