Answer:

<h2>The answer is "4. Tan's mother does not speak standard English, but she is able to convey the ideas behind her words."</h2>

Explanation:

Amy Tan described her mother's use of the English language as "Impeccable broken English" because <em><u>it pertains to a somewhat direct translation of what she wants to say in their native language</u></em>.

  • Tan, in her essay, started with the terms 'broken' and 'limited,' but she thought that it diminished the value or belittled the person using the language.
  • Because English is not her first language, she is unable to speak standard English fluently. However, even if Tan's mother was using a broken English language, she managed to convey the message she wanted.
  • People around her can understand what she's trying to say. And this is what matters the most.
