“Whereäs” as an alternative spelling of “whereas”

English
1 answer:
ra1l [238]3 years ago
8 0
Yes, it seems to be an alternative, in some situations acceptable, but eccentric and not neutral spelling of this word. It accents the fact that "ea" here are two separate vowels rather than a diphthong: that is the function of the  trema (the two dots).

In practice it's not used much, because it's not really necessary: it does not distinguish it from any other word, and trema is not easy to find on English keyboards: so there is no need.

Read the following passage from Langston Hughes's "Theme for English B" and answer the question. It's not easy to know what is t
Illusion [34]

The answer is:

  • repetition
  • alliteration
  • assonance

In the pasage from "Theme for English B," the author Langston Hughes makes use of repetition when he reproduces the words <em>and</em>, <em>hear, me, </em>and <em>you</em> several times.

He also uses alliteration, which is the evident repetition of identical consonant sounds in nearby syllables. For example, <em>true </em>and <em>twenty-two</em>, as well as <em>hear </em>and <em>Harlem. </em>

Finally, Hughes also employs assonance, which is the resemblance in vowel sounds among syllables and words. For instance, <em>true, two, you</em> and <em>too</em>; and <em>feel, see </em>and <em>we</em>.
