Odysseus's journey reflects on his dynamic character. Starting with Polyphemus, Odysseus's hubris reflects how pride destroyed him no matter how intelligent the plan. After this encounter, Odysseus begins to evolve into the man we see throughout the hardships he faces throughout the book. On calypso's island he was trapped by the gods, and felt no underlying hope that could drive him home to Telemachus and Penelope. However, after escaping, he has hope and willpower where he finds strength in cunning intelligence which brought back his pride and ambition. In the Illiad, Odysseus is the most intelligent and thoughtful of the kings, and so Homer uses this as his the driving characteristic in his personality as he finds his way home to Ithaca. No pride, no intelligence, no ambition? No Odysseus.

Read the following sentence.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The definition for "nailed' in this is "to have done precisely"  

Explanation:

In this sentence it states that Ari had seen the "approval on everyone's faces" which in other words he think he had prosecuted the audition correctly which shows that the word nailed must mean "to have done precisely". Another reason is that the other definitions of nailed do not describe this correctly.
