Why can’t I forget the earnest eyes of the man who said to me in Jordan, “Until you speak Arabic, you will not understand pain”?

Ridiculous, I thought. He went on, something to do with an Arab carrying sorrow in the back of the skull that only language cracks. A few words couldn’t do it. A general passive understanding wasn’t enough. At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, “I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel — so lonely for one.” And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head. —“Speaking Arabic,” Naomi Shihab Nye What is Nye’s purpose in her essay?

“That you want us to call him Nikhil.”
Oksanka [162]

The correct answer is “Globalization can cause confusion and discomfort as people adjust to different, often conflicting, cultural values and expectations.”

Indeed, the excerpt shows that Globalization causes confusion both for the host society and the immigrants. In this situation, the teacher lacks the cultural contextual information to understand that this Bengalese family is referring to their custom of having a school name for students. She is asking probing questions to try to understand if this is a middle name or a nickname.

The Bengalese parents seem to either lack the humility or the patience to explain exactly why they mean and provide her with the context she needs to understand their request. Another possibility is that they lack the education or linguistic tools to properly explain this.

Incomprehension goes both ways, had they been able or willing to explain this, the teacher would have been able to explain to them that their child can use a second school name in a personal context and have his friends and other students refer to him by such name but that with regards to academic records, American laws prohibit such practices as these records must match the exact legal identity of the student.

How did the battles change the course of the war? Which side had a favorable outcome for the battles?
seropon [69]

Two large armies met in the southern Pennsylvanian town of Gettysburg in the early days of July 1863. The engagement, which started as a skirmish between Union cavalry and Confederate troops searching for supplies, turned into one of the Civil War's bloodiest conflicts.

The final Union triumph at Gettysburg would significantly improve North morale and put a stop to Confederate General Robert E. Lee's audacious plan to invade the North. The fight, which is frequently cited as a crucial turning point in the conflict, would gain even more significance later that year when President Abraham Lincoln visited Gettysburg to dedicate the cemetery on the battlefield.

The cavalry regiments were scouting ahead to learn more about the enemy position even while the majority of the Army of the Potomac was still in Maryland, following Lincoln's instructions to remain in Maryland to maintain a buffer between Washington and the rebel army. The Confederate soldiers originally withdrew to Cashtown, but on July 1 they made the decision to return to Gettysburg and acquire the supplies they required, even if it meant confronting the Union troop.
