What is the literal meaning of "they acquire gold as if it were corn grains​

English

The meaning behind that simile is that ‘they’ are getting tons of gold like they were corn grains which if you’ve seen them, there’s a lot in just one corn. So basically those people were getting a lot of gold.

Pls, help!!!!<br><br> how can you use clues to determine the meaning of a word?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Context clues (or as you said "clues") are when we are reading and the author helps to let us understand want it happening better by using actions, symbols,etc.

Explanation:

For example, examine this sentence and determine the meaning of "dubious":

"Although some believe in the existence of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and the existence of extraterrestrial life, more are dubious about these things."

When you examine the word "dubious" in the context of this sentence, you should be able to make some inferences and educated guesses about the meaning of the word "dubious". The meaning of this word is to be doubtful. This inference and educated guess can be arrived at by comprehending and understanding the context within which the word occurred. This sentence states that "some believe in the existence of unidentified flyer objects and the existence of extraterrestrial life" but still more are doubtful about these things. The word "although" in this sentence is also an important clue because it suggests that the opposite of "some believe" is "more are dubious" meaning more are doubtful.

Hey I'm sorry about that. My answer was taken down since I had a link in it. I hope this still helps.
