Answer:
When she looks at Rachel and Lucy, Esperanza immediately notices that the two girls are sisters, especially because of their identical thick Popsicle lips. However,when she thinks deeper, she sees even more similarities between herself and Nenny. For example, they have the exact same laugh. When the four girls are playing outside on Mango Street, Esperanza spots a house that she thinks looks like Mexico. Nenny bursts into the same laugh, agreeing that the house, indeed, does look like Mexico. Lucy and Rachel become closer to Esperanza, not only because of the friendship they provide, but also because of the friendship they strengthen between Esperanza and her own sister. Through similarities between Lucy and Rachel, Esperanza begins to notice all the similarities she shares with her young sister. She hears Nenny laugh and knows that it is identical to her. I hope that helps.
The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, a word that refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles, specifically from a volcano; medically, it is the same as silicosis.

To the traditional ruler, Aluu-ulu,
DISCARDING OF SHAVING OFF THE HAIR OF A WIDOW
Igweeee! Good day sir.
I write to you with deep pains over the suffering the women in Aluu-ulu community over the years. It has been a custom in our community since I can remember to shave off the hair of widows as a sign of mourning which not only goes against their fundamental human rights but is morally wrong because this shaving is usually done without consent.
I know of a young widow that her hair was shaved against her wishes and because she resisted the evil exercise, she was accused of having a hand in her husband's death and was put through the more barbaric ritual of swearing before an 'oracle' that she was innocent of the charges brought against her. This is a grieving woman that needs all the moral support and encouragement she can get, but no, she was subjected to such sub-human treatment which was totally unacceptable.
Your highness, I strongly believe this custom of shaving the hair of widows in Aluu-ulu community should be stopped and discarded completely.
Yours sincerely,
John Thomas.
