Unrelated Incidents’ by Tom Leonard and Search for my Tongue by Sujata Bhatt :: English Literature

What does the way a person speaks tell us about the person? ‘Unrelated Incidents’ by Tom Leonard and ‘Search for my Tongue’ by Sujata Bhatt are two poems that give people an incite into how a person is perceived by others, by the way that they speak. ‘Unrelated Incidents’ is about how the BBC newsreaders all talking in Standard English and will not have a Scottish person reading the news because the viewers will not understand there accent, Tom Leonard views this as discrimination and shows his dislike to this attitude in his poem. ‘Search for my Tongue’ is about Sujata Bhatt’s personal experiences with learning another language and having to speak in a foreign tongue and forgetting about the mother tongue which is the original language. When Sujata thinks that she has finally lost her mother tongue she starts to hear it again in her dreams. The layout of the poem ‘Unrelated Incidents’ is set out in an unusual way because of the poem talking about the BBC newsreaders. When the newsreaders reads out the news they read it off of autocue and this is how the poem is set out. When first looking at ‘Unrelated Incidents’ it is difficult to read because of the spellings of the words. The poem is written phonetically and not in Standard English. Tom Leonard says in line 27-30 ‘this is me token yir right way a spellin.’ Leonard also uses colloquial which is slang he uses it in the last line with ‘belt up’ he does this to mock the way the news is read because of the poem being written as if it were the six clock news. This is different to ‘Search for my Tongue’ because Sujata Bhatt for 15 lines writes in English but then from line 16-29 writes in Gujarati which is her mother language, beneath this it also tells the reader how to read this language (which is spelt phonetically). The lines written in Gujarati is actually the first part of the poem written again and when you read it the first part sounds harsh and not very nice to read but when you read it for a second time in Gujarati it flows and is nice to read. In ‘Unrelated Incidents’ and ‘Search for my Tongue’ they either are cross or upset with themselves or with others around them. In the poem ‘Unrelated Incidents’ the Scottish man is angry for being rejected by the BBC just because of the way that he talks and because of his accent and in ‘Search for my Tongue’ she is upset with herself for not

Roles Of Women And Rules Of Marriage - 2144 Words

The roles of women and rules of marriage have changed very drastically since the 16th century. In the play Othello three women, each of a different social class, were part of the story and all had different roles and marriage rules to follow. Some examples of this would be the roles of women in the 16th century, marriage rules of the 16th century, and how the women of Othello act. Although many may believe the roles of women and marriage rules portrayed in Othello and in real life during the 16th century were extremely different, one might believe the book follows the rules very accurately. The roles of women include their need to obey male relatives, what careers were available to them, and what women became prostitutes. The roles of women during the 16th century included obeying their male relatives, careers that women could obtain working lives, and the prostitutes of the town. Women were taught that they were below the men of society and the church enforced this with a quote from the bible (King). According to William.shakespeare.info, â€Å"Women in Venice, as elsewhere in Venetian society, were expected to obey their fathers and their husbands and dedicate themselves to child bearing, charity, and piety† (â€Å"Elizabethan women†). In other words women were only there to give birth, be a mother, help others when needed, and to be religious. Most women, if not married, would still be religious and help when they could.

The Misery in Evil Free Essays

There is a lot we can learn from infants. Infants have control over their emotions. When they feel hungry, they cry. We will write a custom essay sample on The Misery in Evil or any similar topic only for you Order Now When we feed them, they stop. They react the same way when dealing with such feelings and emotions such as nausea, sleep, and even anger. The children know how to let their emotions flow and as soon as the emotion is dealt with, they let the feelings go. As life becomes more complicated, people tend to forget how to let thing flow and then let them go. The older we get, the more we hold in the emotional baggage, allow ourselves to be possessed by them. Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights tells a very good story of the consequences of holding emotions in without ever releasing them. The characters in the book are so deeply enveloped into their emotions that they create prisons for their minds. Their own acts of hate and unkindness create these prisons; prisons that won’t let them escape from their misery. From a very early age, the seeds of hatred are planted into Hindley. When the orphan boy, Heathcliff is brought home to live with the Earnshaw family, Hindley becomes immediately jealous when the love of his father goes into Heathcliff. Along with his sister, Catherine, the two work together to ridicule the orphan child of his disabilities, mainly his illiteracy. When Hindley’s father dies, he goes on to make Heathcliff’s life miserable. He treats Heathcliff as one of the servants and terminates his education. The hatred is spread into Heathcliff as he vows to seek revenge on Hindley. While Hindley continued his abuse on Heathcliff, Catherine falls in love with the orphan child. However, Catherine had a personal ambition to find someone that would carry her away like an enchanted princess. She got this opportunity when she was allowed to enter the Linton house. Heathcliff, on the other hand, was told to go back home. While Catherine learned the ways of the rich, Heathcliff started his plan to seek revenge. One of the interesting aspects of the book is the fact that Heathcliff started off with the typical romantic hero. He was the orphan child, destined to rise above the standards. However, Bronte doesn’t allow Heathcliff to transcend above his position in life. Throughout the novel, Heathcliff commits act of pure evil that is very hard for the reader to believe. He starts by killing a few dogs and goes on to create even more havoc. He tortures Isabella by testing her undying love for him. He even goes on to plan the use of his own child to seek revenge on his arch nemesis, Edgar Linton. All the while, the one thing that caused all of his pain, all of his misery, never stopped haunting him. Catherine died from the love she had for Heathcliff. Her acts of unkindness towards him led to her misery which would eventually lead to her death. Heathcliff could never bury Catherine and he felt like her ghost was always around watching him, waiting for him to join her. Heathcliff’s ultimate revenge would take place by destroying the love between Hareton and the young Catherine. He tried to recreate a love triangle between his son Linton Heathcliff, the young Catherine, and Hareton. However, the young Catherine reminded Heathcliff of his love for her mother so much, that his desire to fulfill his act of revenge soon disappeared. When he finally realized this, his anger, his rage, turned to misery. Like his love before him, he let the misery take over, which would lead him to his own death. Heathcliff, along with many other characters in the story, were locked inside a cage they couldn’t escape. The lock was composed of love, hatred, revenge and misery. For the second generation of children in the story (Heathcliff, Edgar Linton, Hindley, and Catherine), the self-made prisons made for some very miserable lives and depressing deaths.

The Effect Of Technology On English Essay free essay sample

, Research Paper Jarrod Farrar English 255-01 November 20, 2000 The Effect of Technology on English Technology has ever had a manus in the defining of linguistic communications. From the clip cave mans formed tools to pull images to the cyberspace age, engineering has changed the manner we write and speak. With the spread of the? cyberspace age? we have seen many alterations in English in the last few old ages. The English linguistic communication will go on to germinate and distribute with our increased dependance on these new engineerings. The December 31, 1999 issue of the Economist wrote? The birth of the computing machine and its American operating systems gave English a nudge in front ; that of the cyberspace has given it a immense push? ( p85 ) . With America being the leader in computing machine and cyberspace engineering, English speech production people have reaped the benefits. Silicon Valley is traveling to provide to the patronage that it is most disposed to make and do the highest net income from. That is good intelligence for English talkers, bad for those that speak another linguistic communication. The chief option for these non-English talkers is to larn adequate English to be able to work Farrar 2 the computing machine package. This leads to the spread of English throughout the universe. The planetary economic system is another manner that engineering effects English. In an article in Fortune, Justin Fox writes, ? To vie globally, more and more European concerns are doing English their official linguistic communication? ( p209 ) . The planetary economic system is merely successful if the engineering available plants. The engineering that encompasses the planetary economic system includes: telephone orders, telecommunications, cyberspace concerns, web sites etc. Without equal engineering, the economic system would be more focussed on local concern. In this engineering, as with computing machine package, English is the dominant linguistic communication. In order for non-English speech production companies to vie on the planetary market, they must be able to pass on with English talking clients. If they force the client to pass on in their native lingua, odds are that they will non harvest the benefits available. The addition in planetary concerns led to the spread of E nglish throughout the universe. The combination of computing machine package and planetary concerns leads to the cyberspace. The cyberspace is the most of import tool in the spreading of English throughout the universe. Through the usage of confab suites and voice confab Sessionss, non-English talkers are exposed to English. This exposure leads to Farrar 3 more English speech production people. English talkers comprise the great bulk of cyberspace users, so most web sites are written in English. In order to acquire the most out of the cyberspace? s capablenesss ; users must be able to understand English. This leads to a farther spreading of English throughout the universe. The merchandise of this increased dependance on English and engineering leads to the formation of new words. Wilson Quarterly wrote in an article about the add-on of new words in the Merriam-Webster? s Collegiate Dictionary in the 1990? s that, ? Lending 24 of the 99 footings added in the 2nd half of the decennary, engineering is the prima linguistic communication generator. The cyberspace entirely ( surprisingly, the term was merely added in 1997 ) has spawned a brood of 12 nouns: newsgroup, chat room, clip art, place page, hyper nexus, netiquette, netizen, screen rescuer, hunt engine, spare, URL, and World Wide Web? ( p13 ) . The add-on of these words in such a short span of clip shows the influence of engineering on English. English is germinating to suit the new footings needed to map in the? wired? universe. The coming of these intelligence words leads to confusion covering with beginning of the words former significances. Richard Lederer writes in Writer? s Digest, ? The hot new engineering of the computing machine exhaustively befuddled the significances of back up, spot, boot, browser, clang, disc, point, hacker, difficult thrust, hit, mail, Farrar 4 memory , bill of fare, mouse, cyberspace, park, prompt, supplier, coil, Spam, breaker, virus, web site ( no longer merely where Charlotte lives ) , and window? ( 43 ) . Even if the article quoted from was written in joke, we can visualize a hereafter where words are muddled. Apparently mundane new engineering based words pop up that have their beginning in already used words. With the addition of these words, it is possible that English can go littered. One word may possess many significances that have no direct correlativity. This would do it hard on people larning English, or at least do it harder to hold on. The formation of these new words and significances besides widens the spread between those that are computing machine understanding and those that are non. There are a big per centum of people that have phobias covering with computing machines. With the addition of new words, people non already utilizing computing machines may be less willing to get down. The increasing dependance on computing machines makes it a necessity to be computing machine literate. It will be harder for those that do non understand computing machine slang to go successful. Another of import consequence of engineering on English trades with the manner we write and spell. When pass oning over the cyberspace, grammar and spelling is non every bit of import as in formal Hagiographas. The intent of this communicating trades with acquiring your thought across. Spelling is non seen as Farrar 5 awfully of import every bit long as the reader can understand what is written. This can take to hapless spelling wonts and grammar use. When composing an e mail or utilizing a confab room, seldom does one range for a dictionary. With the increasing usage of e mail as a manner to pass on, these bad wonts will non be corrected. Finally, words deemed misspelled today may non be considered misspelled in the hereafter. English words could finally germinate into a wholly phonic type linguistic communication. Of class we can ever utilize enchantment and grammar cheque on our computing machines in order to rectify our errors. Dick Teresi writes, ? Even in the yearss of typewriters, authors knew that their word pick would be 2nd guessed by editors, referees and the similar. Now we must confront the extra invasion of our ain computing machines, which critique us before we can even publish out? ( p39 ) . These spelling and grammar tools can be seen as short term solutions to long term jobs. The computing machine will rectify your spelling, but you are non rectifying your spelling. This leads to utilizing the computing machine as a crutch. Peoples will non work on their hapless spelling if they know that the computing machine will make it for them. These computing machine tools besides take off from a authors creativeness. By allowing a computing machine edit and clean up your paper, a big constituent of authorship Farrar 6 is taken from the author. With the increasing engineering, composing could finally go a? by the Numberss? activity. The user could type in a few abstract thoughts and the computing machine could manner a paper from the keywords. This could take into the loss of words that the computing machine universe could hold as unneeded. We can see from these illustrations that engineering has had a profound consequence on English. Technology has revolutionized the manner we can pass on with people from around the universe outright. English speech production states hold a monopoly on the technological universe and our linguistic communication is distributing because of it. The spreading of English helps us pass on, but it is besides evolves the linguistic communication. The consequence that engineering has had on English shows that linguistic communication alterations and adapts to the universe around it. Farrar 7 1. ? The World Language? Economist 12 Dec. 1999.
