The title of Oscar Wilde's most successful play. The Importance of Being Earnest features a salient pun in the form of the word "Earnest",


Earnest means "honest", and "truthful"


At the very beginning of the play, we learn that Jack has created a convenient younger brother named Ernest. We don't know why he comes up with that particular name, but we’re guessing Jack had a laugh or two over it. Jack, Ernest, fools his lady friends, all of whom have an obsession with the name "Ernest." Both Gwendolen and Cecily are in love with that name, based on an assumption that boys named Ernest will be as honest as the name suggests.

have a mentor to follow.

learn from his mistakes.

Answer:

exhibit grace under pressure.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms," the narrator makes reference to how soldiers spend their time before an attack. In that respect, he mentions that he is invited to have a drink with the major and other officers in a kind and pleasant atmosphere. Thus, the relaxed and unconcerned moment they have contrasts with the brutality of the attacks, which demonstrates the dignity and amiability of the men in stressful times.

Bezzdna [24]

Yes, I think Clinton's speech was effective in showing support for the American people during this tragedy because his tone reflect the pain he felet about the feelings of the people that lost loved ones to the tragedy.

The use of language and parallelism help advance his purpose because he was able to tell about the feeling of a particular women through her letter about the death of her husband and she implores that Americans should “search for justice.” and not express anger.

<h3>What is Parallelism?</h3>

Parallelism  serves as the literary term that described the similar words,  phrases, sentence structure, as well as grammatical elements to emphasize similar ideas in a sentence.
