Abstract
Explanation:
Women with feminine speech patterns (i.e., use of tag questions, modals, intensifiers, and numeral approximations) are seen as less confident, less assertive, and less believable than women with masculine speech patterns. The present study examined how masculine and feminine speech patterns affect the acceptance by superiors of decisions made by male and female subordinates. Seventy-nine male and female students listened to a tape recording of a subordinate's proposal for a new electronic game. The results demonstrated that the proposals of subordinates with masculine speech patterns were more likely to be accepted by male listeners, whereas female listeners were not influenced by the speech patterns.

Assimilation
Explanation:
The given scenario is an example of cultural assimilation.
Cultural assimilation is a process in which a minority group or culture accepts the values, behaviors, and beliefs of a society's majority group or culture. Here, we have Funsai, who moved from Malawi to New Jersey. New Jersey is a city mostly populated by Americans who speak English and have values that are probably different from his own. However, he has begun to speak English more and more at school and at home, despite not having to speak it at home because his family knows Swahili. We can say that Funsai has begun assimilating.
