    Right from the start of “Maggie: A Girl of the Streets‚” Stephen Crane uses language in a very specific way. In the first chapter‚ we are given a look at some children fighting. While the paragraphs are written quite eloquently‚ the dialog is quite different. Instead of writing words properly‚ Crane has chosen to write such sentences as‚ “Dey’ll get yehs” (Crane 1). “Dey’ll” and “yehs” are not actually words‚ but they also shouldn’t be dismissed as mistakes. An English speaker can determine

The conversation depicted in the passage‚ and its following few lines‚ are perfect representations of the flow of feelings produced by uncomfortable conversation.
