Tip's description of the Indian bluff later in the story is vivid and has an element of magic and mystery that appeals to the boys, but Cather's diction creates just as magical a description of their own hometown and their "stomping grounds" at the riverside. Why do you think Cather chose this language to describe the setting? What is the effect of the diction on you, the reader? Choose at least three words or phrases you feel are particularly effective or descriptive when it comes to setting the scene.

Answer and Explanation:

The language Cather chose provided a more playful tone to the comments. This gave a fantasy and illusion that managed to attract the attention and perception of the boys better, but also created a harmony with the story told, generating a unity and making it even deeper. Diction when used well has that power, making the story more interesting.

As a reader, the diction provokes a greater interest in reading, because it leaves the story vivid for me, determining an immersive experience capable of making me live that story, mainly in relation to the description in the scenarios. In this case, the use of words that stimulate some of my senses in relation to the scenery are more attractive, words like smell, texture and exergar.

i think the answer would mist likely be an adjective clause, because unhappy is an adjective.
