Answer:

The character of the father (king) in “The Princess and the Tin Box,” is a supporting role. Not much is mentioned about him but through the story an outline can be drawn.

Explanation:

James Thurber’s short story “The Princess and the Tin Box,” is written in the form a modern fable. The main character is the Princess who has just turned eighteen years old and spoilt with riches since childhood. The King or the father of the Princess has a minimal role to play. But from the story we can understand that the princess was very dear to him since she was a baby. He provided her with the best of things that included only gold, precious stones etc. All things below this standard was not even kept in the palace grounds. So he basically, kept his daughter lavishly and dependant on others with all the amenities.

Harman [31]

Answer:

The different dialects made it a bit difficult to understand and follow the dialogue. I could understand Higgins and Pickering well, but it was tough to understand what Eliza was saying sometimes. For example, consider this excerpt from the play:

THE FLOWER GIRL: Ow, eez ye-ooa san, is e? Wal, fewd dan y' de-ooty bawmz a mather should, eed now bettern to spawl a pore gel's flahrzn than ran awy atbaht pyin. Will ye-oo py me f'them?

I had to read this excerpt several times to understand what Eliza was saying. In such cases, the other characters’ responses to Eliza helped me figure out what she was saying.
