Half caste, Unrelated incidents, and Search for my tongue :: Comapre Three Poems
I will be discussing how the three poesys Halfe club, uncorrelatedincidents, and search for my tongue do not use standard English. Iwill be exploring the poets motivation and discussing how the poetsdeviate from standard English.In the poem Search for my tongue the poet Sujata Bhatt uses thelanguage Gujarat. Using an alternative language such as (Gujarat) hasan effect in ship canal that it shows how Sujata Bhatt had went fromspeaking English to Gujarat and back end to English. It has an effectshowing how she has two tongues in her mouth, one the English tongue,and the former(a) tongue being the foreign tongue. Sujatas English tongueis talking nonetheless overnight her Gujarat tongue has taken over in herdreams. Then in the morning her English tongue comes back like a blooming growing, the bud opens, the bud opens in my mouth, it pushesthe other tongue aside.In the poem Unrelated incidents is a reporter from the BBC talking.From the way the words are spell we can gather that th e reporter isScottish, this is thi sextuplet a clock thi macrocosm said n thi reason a talkwia BBC accent iz coz yi widny wahnt mi ti talk about thi trooth.Also in this poem is scarce any standard English at all. It iseffective in ways that we get ideas of what the grapheme is like. Weknow how the reporter is feeling. He doesnt sound to clever this isthi six a clock nyooz. belt up. Where as if it was said, This is thesix a clock news. Belt up, it would have no feeling to the way thereporter is actually feeling and this is why it would be mend not tohave used standard English.In the poem Halfe Caste the poet John Agard is talking about how heonly half person. He says he is Half white, and Half black. We wouldhave no idea of how the character would behave or speak, half white orhalf black. adjudicate from the way he talks, well in dat case england brook nearly always half caste in fact any(prenominal) o dem cloud half caste
