"a modest proposal" what does the title suggest

English
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
3 0
It suggests a satirical and simple proposal to the problem starving Ireland faced: the lack of food to feed the people.

Of course, the entire modest proposal was that parents eat and sell their children as food and the idea was meant as satire, meaning to be considered with a grain of salt and not seriously (kind of like a really dark joke).

''Modest'' means that the proposal was obvious and simple in the eyes of the author Jonathan Swift but not necessarily in the eyes of others. ''Proposal'' means the general answer to the problem Swift was answering.

Hope this helps! :)

What kind of problems do poor people have to deal (big explanation needed)
adell [148]

Answer:

The kind of problems that poor people have to deal with is many. Often, poor people are homeless and don't have much money, resulting in many problems such as poverty and sickness, since they don't have money to keep care of themselves. Also poor people can't really have any proper equation because they have to focus more on surviving (they can't really afford any education either.)

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)
