Answer:

We can see this when he uses words like "solitry" and "Thish-yer".

Explanation:

This question is about "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County".

The narrator of the story, although maintaining a simple language, presents a formal diction, with polite words and absence of slang and colloquialism. This narrator presents an educated and cultured tone through the words he uses, in contrast to Simon Wheeler, who is less sophisticated when using colloquial words, slang and a more popular and informal diction. This can be seen through the words "solitry" and "Thish-yer"
