How does the author use symbolism in this passage to develop a clear idea

Middle English can be defined as a form of English language spoken during the medieval times, typically between 1150 and 1500 AD. It is considered to be spoken after the Norman conquest.
On the other hand, modern English refers to a form of English language spoken since 1450 or 1550 AD after the Great Vowel shift in England.
<em><u>Middle English = Modern English</u></em>.
1. <em><u>Uglike</u></em> is a middle English language which means <em><u>ugly</u></em> in modern English language.
2. <em><u>Cullen</u></em> is a middle English language which means to <em><u>kill</u></em> in modern English language. It was derived from the old English word cwellan.

4. <em><u>Blundern</u></em> is a middle English language which means to make a <em><u>blunder</u></em>.
It would be concidered a classic to many because it has been passed down many years and it is a very very old book, We are reading it because it concists of a lot of important concepts to everyday life. Hope this helps! :D
