Answer:

C)This metaphor is significant because water is a symbol of youth and beauty, which the mirror reflects.

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of speech widely used in poems, because it is a figure of expressive content. Through the use of metaphor, the author can produce phrases of figurative meanings, through comparisons between two things that will bring a poetic and expressive meaning to a given phrase.

We can see an example of this, in the question above, where the author uses the metaphor to compare a mirror with a lake, in a very poetic way. This is because the mirror has the ability to reflect the image that is placed in front of you, when the woman places herself in front of the mirror she sees her young and beautiful image. Youth and beauty can be symbolized through the water of a lake that remains youthful for eternity and owner of a beauty reflected in its waters.

Who found English language and How?​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The history of the English language really started with the arrival of three Germanic tribes who invaded Britain during the 5th century AD. These tribes, the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes, crossed the North Sea from what today is Denmark and northern Germany. At that time the inhabitants of Britain spoke a Celtic language. But most of the Celtic speakers were pushed west and north by the invaders - mainly into what is now Wales, Scotland and Ireland. The Angles came from "England" [sic] and their language was called "English" - from which the words "England" and "English" are derived. Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden and distinct change in pronunciation (the Great Vowel Shift) started, with vowels being pronounced shorter and shorter. From the 16th century the British had contact with many peoples from around the world.

This, and the Renaissance of Classical learning, meant that many new words and phrases entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was now a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Printing also brought standardization to English. Spelling and grammar became fixed, and the dialect of London, where most publishing houses were, became the standard. In 1604 the first English dictionary was published.
