What literary device is being used in the following sentence?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

A. Dialect

Explanation:

Dialects are different forms of the same language characteristic for specific regions or social groups. For example, someone from the northern part of the USA might say <em>hello</em>, while someone from the South would say <em>howdy.</em>

Irregular subject-verb agreement (<em>they was swimming</em> instead of <em>they were swimming</em>) is a characteristic of some dialects.

The word <em>yonder</em> is archaic or belongs to a dialect. It means <em>over there</em>.

Diction is the choice and use of words and phrases in speech or writing. Every writer has their own diction.

The syntax is a set of rules words and phrases follow to create sentences in a language.

The tone in literature is what the author feels about a certain subject.
