History

With the purpose of making a humorous tone in the first two paragraphs of his essay, “Me Talk Pretty One Day.” David Sedaris does two things. First, he creates a ridiculous character of himself. And second, he places his character in a tight location. Sedaris makes an intimidating setting that he is arriving. Everyone who joins the school, excluding for himself, spoke French well. Moreover, the students were all fresh, good-looking, and elegant. He clarifies that he feels totally out of place. By putting a ridiculous character in an intimidating condition, Sedaris is conveying his readers to always imagine the unforeseen.

False because they wanted independence. The articles of confederation was the first ever written document, and it all went terribly wrong. If your still not sure and if I confused you (I tend to do that a lot) then just Google it.

Complete the quote twas brillig and the slithy toves
gtnhenbr [62]

The complete quote is:

‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A non-sense poetry which was penned by Lewis Carroll about the killing of a species called "the Jabberwock" the monster. It relies on a misunderstanding of language instead of on "non-sense," enabling the audience to infer language and thus engage in narration as lexical allusions swim underneath the poem's surface.

The poem has been translated so far in 65 languages, which was hectic. Its playful, fanciful language gave English words of nonsense and neologisms like "galumphing" and "chortle." The nonsense verse idea was not unique to Carroll, who should have learned about the chapbooks.
