The correct answer is D. An unusual custom started.

Explanation

The passage talks about the custom of keeping money in pigs made of clay. In this, the author refers to the fact that this custom is associated with the pig representing greed. However, he expands information on how this unusual custom arose, alluding to the fact that the word "pig" sounds the same as the word "Pygg" used in England to refer to jars or pots made of clay in which people used to keep the money. Over time, the similarity of the words caused clay pigs to be made and given away as a joke. Eventually, this unusual custom spread around the world in places where different languages are spoken, and the origin of this tradition is unknown because of the English words "Pygg" and "pig". So the correct answer is D. An unusual custom started.

(a) Analyze Reread lines 208-212 of Beowulf. Identify the syntactic device used. (b) Interpret What qualities does the syntax ad
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The tone of the narrative changes from being against Beowulf to accepting him at this point in lines 208–212.

What is syntactic device?
A tool that can manipulate values, such as a computer or jeejah, is referred to as a syndev (syndev for short). Compare it to a semantic device, such as the human brain, which has the ability to manipulate values while also connecting them to more abstract concepts. If one views Gödel's [Completeness Theorem] as the tie that binds mathematics and computing science—which may be viewed as sister sciences—together, then the term "Syntactic Device" and its dualism with the concept of Semantic Device may have their roots in this dualism. In this context, computing science represents the syntactic aspect and mathematics the semantic aspect.

The reader learns that even when violence is used against a blatantly evil opponent, it still causes suffering and summons vengeance when the poem switches to Grendel's point of view during his battle with Beowulf.
