Since Amy Tan's mother, who is a non-English speaker, receives a rude treatment from the doctor, it depicts a certain discrimination towards those who could not speak English against those who can whether an accent is present or not. It was confirmed when the doctor became polite to Tan when she spoke English.

Karolina [17]

The sentence: "She picked purple peppers" and "I saw five fish fly past," are examples of:

  • Alliteration
<h3 /><h3>What is alliteration?</h3>

Alliteration refers to a style of speech where the initial letter that sounds and appears the same way is repeated in a particular order. The words often stick together as can be seen in the sentence above. A close look at the sentence shows that the initial letter p of three words appears closely and repetitively.

Also, the initial four 'f' letters appear in a particular order and closely too. So, when the letters have the same sounds and follow each other in a close manner, we can immediately identify the author's use of alliteration.

Alliteration is one of many other literary techniques that are used to ascertain certain moods or goals. These also sound alike, therefore, we can refer to the sentence form used here as alliteration because the letters 'f' and 'p' are repeated.

Typically in Latin, the d.o. is between the subject and the verb. Of course, in this case it applies in English as well. 

The only reason i know it's the d.o. is because in Latin we have to know this stuff lol.
