Explanation:

The question is about Sam Watson, a character from the novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston.

This novel is filled with vernacular language, as a part of the setting of the story.

Questioning means doubting a validity of something, demanding a proof, querying.

Sam Watson, in this particular situation, used the term "questionizin" as a synonim for "asking" ("Ah'm questionizin' you!")

Although both words have the same root (question) their meanings slightly differ, as shown, but in spite of that difference, Sam's sentence can be understood in a proper context.

What figurative language is this? <br><br> The celery snapped as my brother ate it
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Consonance

Explanation:

Consonance is the repetition of similar sounding consonants in a group of closely connected words. In the group of words as seen in the sentence above, there is similarity in the sounds produced by the words celery, snapped, ate, and it.

These consonant sounds can be found anywhere within a word or sentence but they follow each other in quick succession. It is a form of writing that holds the attention of readers as it makes it easier to draw the connection within words.
