Cursing and profanity can have a profound effect on someone

The statement that does NOT reflect why N. Scott Momaday in "A Way to Rainy Mountain" believes that language is powerful is <em>Cursing and profanity can have a profound effect on someone</em>. "A Way to Rainy Mountain" is a trip into the Kiowas history, myth, religion and traditions. The narrator goes to visit the Kiowas when his grandmother has just died. There he remembers her telling the Kiowa's story, and he is willing to see the place for himself. The oral tradition is very powerful, by means of language Aho, his grandmother told him stories about their beginning and their journey from Montana down to the southern plains. So the other three statements are what Momaday really thinks of the power of language.

Which sentence contains an example of hyperbole? Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." (A) contains a hyperbole.

In literature, a hyperbole is a stylistic exaggeration. It is used to give a dramatic effect to a statement.

Here, the hyperbole is: "pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe." There are of course prices that the U.S. are going to refuse to pay, burdens they will not afford to carry, etc., but by exaggerating these commitments, Kennedy sounds more resolute and more persuasive.
