Fudgin [204]3 years ago

Answer:

Tan uses a nonstandard version of english with her husband because it is the language she spoke as a child and it expresses intimacy.

Explanation:

Growing up in a multilingual household or speaking English as a second language can lead to interesting speech patterns. Even when we are adults and realize that certain phrases or idioms are not grammatically correct, we often use them anyway because of the fond memories they bring or because of the contexts or people we associate them with.

Snowcat [4.5K]
The answer would be D because A, B, and C are not relevant to her side of the argument. Those three letters really refer to the opposing side rather than her's. D is the only answer that seems logical for her to pick because it could be information that could be used on her side of the argument.

According to MLA style, what is the correct way to identify titles of books in citations?
belka [17]
<span>According to MLA citation style, book titles should be given in italics. A title is enclosed by quotation marks if a text or film piece is part of a larger work. These would include a chapter title, a poem or short story from a published collection, a tv episode, a song title, or a magazing article. Larger, stand-alone works are put in italics. So book titles, movie titles, magazine names, tv series names, album titles. Quotation marks are tiny, while italics affect the entire title; so remember small works = quotation marks, large works = italics</span>
