Which passage from Chapter 4 of Botchan uses sarcasm?

English
1 answer:
Tema [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

I was more or less uneasy until I found out what they were, but now I saw they were grasshoppers, they set me on the war path.

Explanation:

Sarcasm is simply using irony to mock or make jest of something/someone. The writer used sarcasm here to convey his thoughts and feelings about the ants. He used irony to talk about going to war with the ants when he clearly meant something else.

He was trying to ridicule someone by declaring that he was uneasy at first before declaring all out war when he discovered he was dealing with ants.

The idea is to change the expression "that kept" to "that keeps" to keep the sentence written in standard English.

<h3>Why should this be done?</h3>
  • Because the expression "that kept" refers to the word "fur."
  • Because the word "fur" refers to the pronoun "it."
  • Because the verb "to keep" when conjugated with the pronoun "it" or related words, should take the form "keeps."

Standard English refers to its most formal and grammatically correct form. Therefore, all verbs, pronouns, and nouns must be added to sentences in their correct forms, using all rules of grammar and syntax.

Furthermore, it is necessary to abandon the use of language vices and colloquialism that are common in informal English but incorrect in standard English.
