She then goes into how she is aware of the different ways she uses the English language, she was in a middle of a speech, talking very precise about her book to a group of people using her knowledge of correct grammar that she has learned throughout school, and books, until she spotted her mother, and started to reminisce about how she holds a conversation with her mom. She starts off by giving a example of a conversation with her mom, they were talking about a price of a piece of furniture and Tan heard herself saying, not waste money that way, and she knows this different kind of English , she has been speaking with her mother, family talk ,she calls it, all of her life. Tan also expresses how at the same time her mother is very intelligent. She reads Forbes report, listens to Wall Street Week, and converses daily with her stockbroker. Tan calls this "Broken" or "Fractured" English.

    Recently, in my College Writing II class, I had the opportunity to read, “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan. I enjoyed reading the essay so much that I decided to write my own analysis. “Mother Tongue” is an essay based on the power of language and the will to communicate. However, the essay is not just about language itself, but also about the relationship between a mother, Mrs. Tan, and her daughter, Amy Tan, who moved to America for the possibility of getting a better life and living the American dream. Mrs. Tan encountered difficulties fitting in society because of her spoken “broken” English. “Mother Tongue” is also about changing but at the same time keeping your culture, heritage, and roots. In the essay, Amy talks about her experiences and feelings about the use of the English language. Without the use of Standard English, a person is known to be a foreigner and sometimes misjudged.…

    KayLynn Cuddy Prof. Roehr ENGWR 300 September 30, 2015 Beneficially Bilingual Within the writing community there is one category that exists and yet it has not been totally accepted by the academic discourse. Bilingual writing displays not only the knowledge of one language, but two and yet is still continuously under acknowledged as an academic writing style. Although, known writers have gone against the gain to make an impression on the academic system by providing examples of this technique within their writing. Along with their first-hand experience in the blended cultures they grew up in, these writers have emphasized the importance on culture and language in writing.…

    “It is a difficult history,” he agreed. “But we have to know all of it.” South Africa has sought to “restore justice” after apartheid in a pursuit to heal historic wounds, it is widely admired and often imitated, and ever rightly so, writes Anne Applebaum. Given how bitter the conflict had seemed when she had last visited, KwaZulu was the scene of a violent ethnic struggle; the relative peace that reigns in a relatively integrated South Africa feels in this case miraculous.…

    Great art takes inspiration, and inspiration comes from many different sources. It can be a direct experience of your life; it can come from nature, from God; or it can be a person who is close to you. Without inspiration, every work of art will only be a mere reflection of skill without its own story, as Amy Tan once said "The goal of every serious writer of literature is to try to find your voice and your art because it comes from your own experiences, your own pain." Amy Tan herself writes all of her work with her mother in mind as the reader, her inspiration. She writes to show the beautiful and passionate side of her mother that people can't see. In "Mother Tongue," Amy Tan describes how all of the Englishes that she grew up with, normal English and "mother tongue" English, has shaped her first outlook of life. And through the essay, Tan wants to send a powerful message of how we ought to view people by their beautiful side, but not by their shortcomings.…
