English

klio [65]2 years ago

The main difference between saying "greazy" and saying "greasy" is caused by regional differences in pronouncing words of a language as a result of differing "Dialects."

  • "Dialect" is a local version of a spoken language with some peculiarities due to regional variations in pronunciation.

  • "Dialect" has led people to discriminate against unfamiliar people, who are speaking different dialects of the same language.

Thus, dialect can make the difference between two persons' pronunciation of "greazy" and greasy."

____ [38]

Answer:

D - In Caldwells novel, her protagonist, Lucille, overcomes many obstacles to achieve her goal.

Explanation:

A Bildungsroman is about the growth of the protagonist both morally and psychologically. It's about the passage from young to adult, through learning and experiencing emotions, personal situations, a loss, etc. There isn't a particular style or content. For example, Disney movies or classic hero tales are an example of this. The main character experiences traumatic or hard situations to a point in which they need to step up and end up growing, learning values, etc.

Read the sentence below about the Chicago fire of 1871. Schaffer told someone else to strike the wrong alarm box and that caused
Lostsunrise [7]

Schaffer mistakenly told his assistant to strike alarm Box 342, and as a result, firefighters were directed to an incorrect location during the Chicago fire of 1871.

This is the best example of adding concrete details. It specifically says which alarm box Schaffer told his assistant. The original sentence makes it seem as the miscommunication was the big problem. While it was a problem, the fact that the firefighters went to the incorrect location is really the reason the Chicago fire of 1871 was so devastating. Including these details makes the writing much clearer and easier for the reader to follow.

How have laws, policies, and systems developed to enforce the enslavement of black Americans before the Civil War influenced law
prisoha [69]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>As the Civil War came to a close, southern states began to pass a series of discriminatory state laws collectively known as black codes. While the laws varied in both content and severity from state to state—some laws actually granted freed people the right to marry or testify in court— these codes were designed to maintain the social and economic structure of racial slavery in the absence of the “peculiar institution.” The laws codified white supremacy by restricting the civic participation of freed people; the codes deprived them of the right to vote, the right to serve on juries, the right to own or carry weapons, and, in some cases, even the right to rent or lease land.</h2><h2>Slavery had been a pillar of economic stability in the region before the war; now, black codes ensured the same stability by recreating the antebellum economic structure under the façade of a free-labor system. Adhering to new “apprenticeship” laws determined within the black codes, judges bound many young African American orphans to white plantation owners who would then force them to work. Adult freedmen were forced to sign contracts with their employers—who were oftentimes their previous owners. These contracts prevented African Americans from working for more than one employer, and therefore, from positively influencing the very low wages or poor working conditions they received.</h2><h2>Any former slaves that attempted to violate or evade these contracts were fined, beaten, or arrested for vagrancy. Upon arrest, many “free” African Americans were made to work for no wages, essentially being reduced to the very definition of a slave. Although slavery had been outlawed by the Thirteenth Amendment, it effectively continued in many southern states..!!</h2>
