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.

In paragraph 1, what opinion does the author express about a poor “countryman’s” place in Europe versus his place in America
Natalka [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The opinion that the author expresses about a poor “countryman’s” place in Europe versus his place in America is that in Europe, the government and society do no take into consideration the poor people. The result of this attitude is that poor European people find it hard to call these countries their own, because of that indifference. In comparison, the author says that in the American colonies they have proper legislation and social systems that allow the creation of jobs for all Americans, so citizens feel protected and cherished by the government.

We are talking about the fictional publication called "Letters from an American Farmer," written by J. Hector St. John de Crevecoeur.
