Hello. This question is incomplete this incomplete. the complete question is:
Now you may enter,in your battle-armor,/ wearing war-masks, to see Hrothgar; let shields stay here,tightened war-wood,/your battle-shafts wait the result of words
To what does the kenning battle-shafts refer?
Answer:
swords
Explanation:
Kenning is a figure of speech often used by Anglo-Saxons and can be noticed several times in Beowulf. In short, this figure represents the conjunction of two words creating a kind of "puzzle." This is because the combination of the two words creates a new meaning that represents something easily known. These words are usually related by a hyphen that connects them. In the above excerpt, kenning can be seen in the word "battle-shafts" which can be represented as an elongated object and used in battles, like a sword.
Answer:
Twain uses hyperbole in this excerpt:
D. To emphasize that the arrival of a steamboat had a great effect on the town.
Explanation:
<u>Hyperbole is a figure of speech used to emphasize an idea by exaggerating it.</u> We use hyperbole often in our daily lives, without even noticing it. For instance, when you tell your friend you have called him a million times, you are using this figure of speech. You're exaggerating the number of times you called to emphasize the urgency of the matter.
<u>In the excerpt we are analyzing here, Twain exaggerates his description of how hectic the town gets once the steamboat arrives. The way he describes it, there are people and goods coming and going, and screams and curses - in other words, a messy frenzy. However, once the boat is gone, the town "is dead again". As we can see, he is exaggerating the description to emphasize the effect the steamboat's arrival had on the town.</u>
