What is the message in "A person who knows three languages is trilingual. "Someone who knows two languages is bilingual. "But do

you know what they call a person who speaks only one language?" Pausing for a beat, Mr. Hafizov replied triumphantly to his own question, "American!" message?

Hello there! :D

First of all, I find this question kind of funny. Haha, I love that this is an accepted idea around the world. Us Americans deserve it.

The message in this quote represents an idea of ethnocentrism in America. We, as Americans, usually expect others to learn English but we never learn other langauges besides our own. Many people in Europe and Asia live and converse with people who speak multiple languages, but we live in a place where one is particularly accepted. In fact, most Americans can even get angered by people in the workforce that do not speak our own language. Because we do not intermarriage and we tend to stay within the same socioeconomic class our entire lives (capitalism), there is not much diversity in the langauges and culture we are exposed to. So Mr. Hafizov was right!

I hope this helped you and you have a wonderful day,

Kai xx

How does the narrator’s point of view influence how the events are described in the passage?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

C. The narrator feels shame about what happened but still tries to tell the story in a truthful way.

Explanation:

According to a different source, this question refers to the text "The Man in the Well" by Ira Sher. In this story, we learn about a group of children who find a man in a well, but decide not to help him, and instead, they tease him for days. The narrator tells the story as an adult, and he gives us several hints of the fact that he is embarrassed, such as the fact that he will never go close to the well again. Despite this embarrassment, the author succeeds in telling the story in a truthful way.
