<em>How would you best apply American English in a college setting?</em>
<em>The correct answer is By making sure your writing is always in Standard American English.</em>
- <em>Standard American English or SAE refers to the English language that is generally used in professional communication and in American schools. This English sees a prescriptive use of the language in a college setting; this is for example that the double negative cannot be used. It is very important that college students show linguistic good manners, a use of language attached to the context of readers, situation and purpose. However, the constant change in the language makes us constantly adjust, adapt and check what we have learned.</em>

The main type of figurative language used in "Summer Storm" is that of the simile. The poet uses a simile in the third stanza to describe the storm.
Gioia writes, The rain was "like a waterfall" and "cool and silent as the stars." The poet then compares the brief and powerful nature of the storm to his time with this woman.
The aunt's characterization contributes to the satire by highlighting her prejudice about the man. She believes certain thoughts going on her mind regarding her perception of the man's attitude and body language, but does not actually confirm if what she thinks is factual.
When she states in her mind "he was a hard, unsympathetic man", she does so by taking her thoughts for granted and not realizing that the man's frown might have been caused by a variety of events/thoughts unrelated to her decision.
