      @User You should thank this channel, definitely, however you should thank yourself as well for trying to improve in your free time. You probably won't see this reply but I hope you keep it up. If my classmates and myself could have a half of your effort, we could be achieving great things rather than wasting our lives away doing as little as possible.

      Ellie Burton Ask someone that is a higher level than you in class (preferably a grade 8 or 9 student on average) if you can both write up an answer on a language question - Paper 1, Question 2 [to be specific]. Then, you should compare the two responses and see the difference. Afterwards, use this as a guide to plan for language associated questions in the future and practice continuously. Also, you need to view the AO’s (assessment objectives) so that you know how to answer each question. Try and identify three language devices and pose them for each paragraph.

    • @anasmohammad6314
      @anasmohammad6314 5 лет назад +1

      Try using more verbs , adjectives and adverbs . Perhaps your explanations or descriptions lack sufficient context or perhaps there are not enough words to describe whatever you're intending to write.The idea should be clear to the writes point of view not yours, since ultimately the examiners should understand clearly what you mean and how you convey them really matters. :)

    i just wanted to read some feedback as i have my mock for english language tomorrow. i got this past paper off get revising and it had the extract attached so i answered the second question which is like this one and is about language techniques and key words, its also about weather, specifically a storm happening in Cornwall. i have one picked out one 1 word and only elaborated on it slightly. this is only a beginning and first draft of ideas and how to put my writing together, and not nesscarily a representation of my level of writing but just a basic version. If any teachers or tutors can read the beginning of my answer to question 2 and reply with some feedback tonight, before my mock exam tomorrow, much would be appreciated. The following is what i started to construct as an answer for question 2:
    The writer uses the vigorous verb “Shaking” to describe and imply the power of the gusts of wind and the level of forcefulness they have. The word “Shaking” has connotations of an argumentative behaviour, as a result this can suggest that the impactful wind is vicious and is therefor, making the coach seem helpless and vulnerable. Almost as if they are arguing, yet the coach is significantly losing. As an audience we feel that the weather and storm is very destructive, malevolently attacking every last thing that stands within its path, including the powerless individuals trapped within the coach. As a reader, we almost feel emotionally connected with their impotent desires.
    Coaches can conventionally withstand weather in the Cornwall setting, however, on this occasion, the coach is standing on its last legs as It persists through the storm. The fact that the weather is having such a big effect on the coach, identifies the scale of the storm and the large and domineering attributes the storm and weather consists of.

    The writer uses the soft verb "twinkling" to describe the peacefulness of the scene, and the glow of the river. "Twinkling" gives connotations of a star suggesting the river is Bright and perhaps beautiful and that the atmosphere is all together "glamerous".
    As readers we feel that this river is pleasing to the eye as it's glowing and absorbing everything around, including the sun's heat. Normally, we see rivers as being mossy and dirty however, this particular river is fresh and luxuriously looking.

    the writer uses language devices such as the verb "lashing" to portray how powerful the storm is compared to the trees. From the verb "lashing" we can infer that the storm is cruel compared to the trees. As a reader it makes me feel that the storm itself is more superior to the trees in this specific instance as the trees are usually quite capable of handling such weather. This is visible throughout the extract in which we notice nature portraying it's influence and rule. -( what i would write)

    Hii, can You mark this question 2 for me. Please give me a mark and some feedbacks for improvements pls.
    The writer uses powerful imagery to describe the effects of the weather in Cornwall. The writer uses a simile ‘rocking between…like a drunken man’ to contrast from a steady vehicle to an uncontrollable and an unpredictable vehicle, like a man who is being idiotically drunk. This shows how powerful the weather is, due to the fact that it controls a steady vehicle in such a strong force. The vehicle is being used as a personification, whilst being affected by ‘shaking’ from the gusting wind. The verb ‘shaking’ has connotations of a coach being terrified, traumatized and weak in Cornwall. The effect of this suggests the passengers are victims and are as objects or playthings of the weather, during this obscuring experience. As readers, we strongly feel that we have sympathy toward the passengers and the horses, due to the fact that the victims and the horses are ‘dispirited’ and frightened by the weather as acting cruel and brutal. Every reader would not think that the any vehicle would be affected as worse by any type of weathers, so the weather in Cornwall provokes us that this one is very powerful and strong.
    Through the effective use of verbs, the writer depicts an aggressive connotation of the coach being affected by the violence of the weather in Cornwall, through the minds of readers. The writer describes the weather as it has ‘blew’ the ‘whole body of the coach’ in a powerful strength. The verb ‘blew’ of the wind makes the reader think differently and become curious with the fact that a wind would blow in a care and slow motion, but this is from a reader’s perspective. However, in a writer’s perspective, the writer would see the wind as harsh and aggressive. The weather indicates the level of anger its strengths to be able to wreck and damage the ‘whole body of the coach.’
    Additionally, the writer uses complex sentences in each paragraph to demonstrate the readers as the weather is being described as vivid and as an eternity, throughout the novel. The writer also includes onomatopoeia in the sentences, such as ‘creaked’ and ‘groaned’ to imply that the horses can no longer take any more, through this violent weather in Cornwall. As readers, we bring out sympathy towards the poor horses, because as we know that the weather is a never-ending moment and the horses are trying their best to get out of this wrecking situation but decides to stop, due to the tiredness and emotions of confusion.

    Is this good for my 1st paragrsph of English Lang, paper 1 question 2?
    How does the writer use language here to describe the effects of the storm?
    The writer uses various adjectives to describe the effects of the storm as well as the weather. The phrase "furious waves against the rocks" has been deployed to emphasise and exaggerate the tenatiousness and effusion of the storm. Futhermore, the adjective "furious" indicates that this particular storm is extermely powerful which creates alot of distress for the boy as "he was still tangled in the images of his bad dream. The adjective "furious" has connotations of anger and destructiveness, therefore making readers feel very unconfortable and symapathetic for the boy. This clearly highlights the velocity and recklessness of the storm as the boy also feels very unconfortable.

    You said about writing another 2 or 3 paragraphs, can you write those paragraphs about those other verbs and adjectives you highlighted or would that be too repetitive so would you have to write about another language technique instead?

      As long as you can fully describe it then it should be fine but try and write about other subject terminology so that there’s a mix

    i know i’m really late (sorry) but i’ve attempted to do question 2 i don’t know if it’s any good (sorry if there’s any grammatical errors)
    the writer uses complex sentences to unveil the unlimited possibilities books provide. mr fisher described books as ‘golden’, this adjective symbolises something of great value and worth, perhaps suggesting they are much like treasure, rare and precious.
    however, when describing films, mr fisher associates them with ‘black and white’ typically quite dull colours that portray no excitement. this shows the contrast between how films and books are represented, books are described as something that ‘illuminated hearts and minds’ offering endless possibilities and allowing your imagination to ‘soar’, whereas films are simply just depicted as ‘black and white’.
    perhaps the writer has done this deliberately to show how the two juxtapose each other, beginning with something he feels so passionate about exaggerating it’s every aspect as opposed to something so limited and dim.

    For the reader response, it takes on what the reader would FEEL. You can't feel that the storm is destructive; it isn't an emotion. Instead, you could've said 'Imagined' or something else like that. Sorry if this isn't correct but my English teacher has said that you can't say that the reader is "feels" this as it isn't an emotion.

    Hi would you be able to mark my work please? It's only one peel but do you think I need more analysis in it? Thank you.
    The powerful, intimidating storm is described through violent verbs throughout the extract given. The writer bombards you with the instant effects of the storm, describing the 'wind lashing the trees', and the 'roaring Pacific Ocean'. The use of personification, with precise detail, plants an image of the storm in your head, almost making the picture mock you, thus making it seem more and more real. The lexis 'lashing' is an extremely violent, powerful verb, shadowing the painted picture in your mind. 'Lashing' could be seen as the storm making sharp, shot and frequent hits, just like an annoying sibling or friend when we were younger, making the reader feel at ease and more at home at the same time as making them more on edge. This is cleverly done by the writer in an excellent attempt to show the effects of the storm.
