what can studying the behavior of a culture help you better understand about the character in a story

Vadim26 [7]

When a reader doesn't know or understand the culture of a character, some of said character's choices may be completely foreign to the reader. If a reader were to research a certain character's culture, then the reader would be more likely to understand some of the things that the character might do or say.

Three examples of grammatical ambiguitytypes of ambiguity and their examples

AlladinOne [14]

Explanation:

LEXICAL AMBIGUITY

Lexical ambiguity is the most commonly known form of ambiguity (Reilly 1991; Walton 1996). It occurs when words have more than one meaning as commonly defined and understood. Considerable potential ambiguity arises when a word with various meanings is used in a statement of information request. For example, "bank" may variously mean the "bank" of a river (noun), to "bank" as related to aeroplane or a roller-coaster (verb), a savings "bank" (noun), to "bank" money (verb), or a "bank" of computer terminals (noun) (Turner 1987). Lexical ambiguity is often reduced or mitigated by the context of the sentence.

In the case of an information request, lexical ambiguity exists in the statement "A report of our clients for our marketing brochure mail-out". The word "report" may have several meanings, independent of its context. A gunshot report may echo across the hillside. A student can report to the lecturer. A heavy report can be dropped on the foot. Although the context may make the meaning clear, the lexical ambiguity contributes to the overall ambiguity of the statement and increases cognitive effort.

SYNTACTICAL AMBIGUITY

Syntactical ambiguity is a structural or grammatical ambiguity of a whole sentence that occurs in a sub-part of a sentence (Reilly 1991; Walton 1996). Syntactical ambiguity is a grammatical construct, and results from the difficulty of applying universal grammatical laws to sentence structure. An example of syntactical ambiguity is "Bob hit the man with the stick". This phrasing is unclear as to whether a man was hit with a stick, or whether a man with a stick was struck by Bob. The context can substantially reduce syntactical ambiguity. For example, knowing that either Bob, or the man, but not both, had a stick resolves the syntactical ambiguity.

Comparing the phrase "Bob hit the man with the stick" to the analogous "Bob hit the man with the scar" provides some insights. As a scar is little suited to physical, violent use, the latter formulation clearly conveys that the man with the scar was struck by Bob (Kooij 1971).

In the case of an information request, syntactical ambiguity exists in the request "A report of poor-paying clients and client managers. Determine their effect on our profitability for the last twelve months." The request is syntactically ambiguous because the end user can interpret "their" to mean the poor paying clients, the client managers, or both. Although the context may reduce or negate the ambiguity, syntactically the request is ambiguous.

INFLECTIVE AMBIGUITY

As Walton (1996) notes, inflective ambiguity is a composite ambiguity, containing elements of both lexical and syntactical ambiguity. Like syntactical ambiguity, inflective ambiguity is grammatical in nature. Inflection arises where a word is used more than once in a sentence or paragraph, but with different meanings each time (Walton 1996). An example of inflective ambiguity is to use the word "scheme" with two different meanings in the fallacious argument, "Bob has devised a scheme to save costs by recycling paper. Therefore, Bob is a schemer, and should not be trusted" (Ryle 1971; Walton 1996).

In the case of an information request, inflective ambiguity exists in the example, "A report showing the product of our marketing campaign for our accounting software product". Ambiguity derives from using the word "product" in two different senses in the one statement (Walton 1996; Fowler and Aaron 1998).

Can some one for me answer these questions and give me the number of the bible please. please help

yawa3891 [41]

1- Jacob's twin brother's name was Esau. Genesis 25:25

2- When Esau returned from the fields, famished, he asked Jacob for food. Jacob offered to give Esau a bowl of stew in exchange for his birthright and Esau accepted. Genesis 25:29-34

3- Isaak was a blind, old man. When he felt he was dying he asked Esau to prepare him a savory food so that he could eat and give him his blessing. His wife, Rebecca, overheard him and told Jacob to pretend to be his brother. He dressed with Esau's clothes and puts lamb skin on his arms to imitate his brother's body hair. Then Jacon took Isaak a dish made by his mother and tricked him into giving him his blessing. Genesis 27:1-29

4- I believe Jacob's decision is immoral because he plots with his mother to deceit his father into giving him a blessing that was meant to be for his brother.

5- At Bethel, Jacob dreamed about a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. At the top of the stair was the Lord, who told Jacob that he would give him and his offspring the land in which he is lying. Genesis 28:10-15

6- Jacob's wives name's were Leah and Rachel. Of the two, he loved Rachel more. Genesis 29:16

7- In order to marry Rachel, Jacob made a deal with her father, Laban, by which Jacob had to work for him for seven years. My opinion on this deal is that Rachel should have been the one deciding whether she wanted to marry Jacob or not. Genesis 29:18

8- Laban tricked Jacob by marrying him to his oldest daughter Leah. Since she was vailed, Jacob did not realized the two sisters had been exchanged. In order to finally marry Rachel, Jacob had to agree to work for an extra seven years. Genesis 29:21-30

9- Jacob striked a deal with Laban by which Laban would take all the colored or spotted sheep and Jacob would keep all the pure white ones. However, Jacob would get to keep all colored or spotted sheeps that were born from his own white sheeps. Laban believed this to be impossible, so he agreed eagerly.

However, Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and almond and plane trees, and peeled white stripes in them, exposing the white which was in the rods. He set the rods which he had peeled in fron of the flock's water source; the sheep mated when they came to drink, causing the birthed ones to be striped, speckled, and spotted. Genesis 30:25-43
