Answer & Explanation:

The author chooses not to use standard English in the character's dialogue. Dialect is the way a person pronounces or speaks a language. Often dialects are different based on the demographics of a person. In this dialogue, the dialect can suggest that the speaker is uneducated.

Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds. Foreshadowing is a hint at a future event. Symbolism is when a concrete object represents and idea.

So therefore, the literary device that the passage employs is the dialect.

How is using the word wither more impactful than using other works like weak​
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
First of all, wither is better compared to weaken, rather than weak. But to answer your question, weak is a very general word that can describe many different circumstances. Using wither is more impactful because it gives a sense of what specifically is happening without even expanding on it. The more specific and precise you are with verbs, in most cases the more impactful they are.
