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.

Sophocles chose to recall events of Laius's death rather than portray them. What is the effect of this structural decision?
elixir [45]

Answer:

"In recalling the events of Laius 'death, Sophocles blames Oedipus' character. That's because, Oedipus' memory doesn't let him escape the guilt over his father's murder. This means that he has no way to deny what he did, because his own mind shows that he is the murderer. In this way, Sophocles allows Oedipus to become a self-tortured soul, as his thoughts return to that memory and do not allow him to free himself from guilt, which makes Oedipus look for punishment himself."
