Why did the Egyptians spend so much time preparing for death.

English
1 answer:
aev [14]3 years ago
3 0

The ancient Egyptians believed that when they died their spiritual body would continue to exist in an afterlife very similar to their living world. However, entry into this afterlife was not guaranteed. The dead had to negotiate a dangerous underworld journey and face the final judgment before they were granted access. If successful, they were required to provide eternal sustenance for their spirit. These things could be achieved if proper preparations were made during a person’s lifetime.

What is the imitation of natural sounds in word form?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Onomatopoeia

Explanation:

Onomatopoeia refers to the creation of words that imitate the sound they are trying to describe. Examples are: tic-toc, lub-dub, quack, mwah.

Onomatopoeia comes from the combination of two greek words that mean "name" and "I make".

Onomatopoeia differs a little bit between languages both in spelling and sometimes even in sound. For example, tic-toc is widely used in English, while tic-tac is used in Spanish; quack is used in English, while cuac is used in Spanish; haha is used in English and jaja is used in Spanish.

The speaker’s tone in "Harlem" is best described as frustrated. conflicted. joyful. accepting.
worty [1.4K]
The speaker's tone in "Harlem" is best described as frustrated.

The poem's imagery helps to convey this tone. In discussing a deferred dream, Hughes describes a dried up raisin in the sun; a festering sore; stinking, rotting meat; and a sagging, heavy load. At the end of the poem, he wonders if the deferred dream just explodes.

This imagery helps provide the key to understanding the speaker's attitude, or tone, about his subject, the deferred dream. He is frustrated that these dreams are wasted.

icang [17]
<span>It could be said that Tan's essay might be a “compare/ contrast” one, because it is presented as a comparison of the English language. She exposes his ideas and provides examples of them , personal experiences and she gives a definition of “mother tongue” and she resorts to his mother to provide a clear example of this topic.The she provides more examples to illustrate her point. It could be said that the text is divided into 3 parts: part 1 presents some situations about different styles of English. Part 2 addresses to her mother limitations with the language and the last part, n°3 focuses on her and how she wrote her stories.</span>
