Answer:

He fills his English with Igbo language patterns and rhythm.

Explanation:

Achebe makes a strong use of Igbo words and expressions to create a new English and show how language and communication is a living organism, completely adaptable and innovative.

Igbo is one of the languages spoken in nigeria, which in itself is full of different adaptations, dialects and accents. Using this language together with the English language, the author questions the supremacy of the English language and raises the importance of other languages.

Instructions:Select the correct answer. Why should writers take a break between writing the first draft and revising? to separat

Maksim231197 [3]

The reason writers should take a break between writing the first draft and the revising stage is so to have a fresh perspective on what they have written. Too often after writing a first draft, writers feel a strong connection to their work and are not welcome enough to begin the critiquing process. They are still in the same mindset of what they just created and do not want to change it or cannot see it from a different perspective that may benefit the work. Thus, they should take a break and come back to it later when they are refreshed and able to critique their work in order to revise it.
