Answer:

Dialect.

Explanation:

Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" follows a young orphaned boy on his adventures along the waters of Mississippi. Accompanied by a slave Jim, the duo's encounter with various people and the experiences they had on their "search for adventure" is what comprises most of the story.

In the given excerpt from chapter 8, the character of Jim is speaking in what Twain describes as <em>"the Missouri Negro dialect"</em>. Now, a dialect is a specific way of speaking or use of certain words for a particular area or group of people. And Jim's use of the words in that manner, like the <em>"I's" "wouth"</em> <em>"mo" </em>etc., is an example of a dialect.

How will the desert change for Fatima one Santiago is gone
jenyasd209 [6]

Hello, I think that, I could help with your question.

All researched <3

─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

The alchemist leads the boy through the desert with the falcon on his shoulder. During their stops, the falcon flies off and returns with rabbits or birds to eat. They travel for a week, speaking little. On the seventh day, the alchemist sets up camp early and tells Santiago his journey is almost finished. Fatima and Santiago agree that his leaving is the right thing to do. Instead, it brought the scent of a perfume he knew well, and the touch of a kiss — a kiss that came from far away, slowly, slowly, until it rested on his lips. The boy smiled. It was the first time she had done that.Santiago tells the desert about his love for Fatima, and it offers its sand to Santiago to help the wind blow. It says that Santiago will also have to ask the wind for help. A breeze picks up as Santiago asks the wind for help. Fatima is proud of her heritage as a 'woman of the desert. ' She explains to him that desert women understand their men must go exploring in the desert, searching for treasure. More than understanding, the desert women are 'proud of their tribesmen. The boy, Santiago, is robbed in Tangier after he gives a man money to buy camels. What happens when Santiago reaches the pyramids that makes his heart burst with joy? He is beaten and robbed and realizes he is alive! There you will find a treasure that will make you a rich man. It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie. During the old king's explanation of what a personal legend is, he insists that Santiago not believe in "The World's Greatest Lie." The old king says this: "At a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie.”

worty [1.4K]

To establish herself as the leader, despite the fact that she is a woman is the example used in this speech.

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is an excerpt from the Tribute Speech by Queen Elizabeth I to her troops in Essex. In 1588, the British were fighting against the Spanish army.

After Defeating Spanish Armada, Queen Elizabeth I made this speech to motivate her troops. If any other nation tries to invade England she'll arm herself to fight for the nation.

Also, she established herself as general and leader, judge and rewarder. She also mentions that she has the body of feeble and weak.

But she has the heart of the king i.e. the King of England. She marked that she has the capability to be a leader and her gender was not a barrier to her leadership.
