Quick question: Are you Neurotypical? You seem to be interpreting things very realistically. For example the whole thing about the 2nd batches of prophecies being explained by actual reasons. It's true, I just haven't heard anyone take that so seriously. I do not intend for this to be taken as me being rude. I just kinda decided to speculate if some guy on the internet is Neurotypical or not.
I do this with a lot of people... (I think it's incredibly obvious that I'm neurodivergent)
Not me writing like 80 words on unrelated things. I'll get my ADHD out of your comments now.
is it still valid
Thank you!! Super helpful for my A Level in 2 weeks! (on an unrelated side note, you really sound like bradley walsh)
Thanks sir ❤
This is great Tysm ❤
i got recommended thsi after watching technoblade, lol
3) H G Wells uses adverb to show the fear of the narrator when he initially came into this strange world as he 'felt naked' and 'panting heavily' this suggests that he was stressed and felt as if he had been overwhelmed with anxiety showing that he feared the new world he had entered. However, when he met the creatures he 'regained confidence' showing that their appearance were childlike and not intimidating as he suddenly changes his perspective of the new place he was in and felt a sense of power over them. H G Wells uses pauses (such as hyphens, commas and full stops) to show the build up of tension and anxiety the narrator feels when he first spots the creatures. When the creatures 'had seen' him shows that he was alarmed and his head was filled with different thoughts such as whether they were violent or not. The pause (which shows the build up of tension) is then followed by the fact that their '...faces were directed towards..' him the adjective 'directed' also connotates a that he sensed that they would attack him and that he was in danger. However as he soon realises their soft nature the writer starts to use less pauses but long sentences to indicate the relief and that the narrator no longer felt in danger but safe. Can someone please mark very appreciate if u do so <3
ok
Thanks this helps a lot

Thanks for sharing, it's helpful👍
this is for any exam board right ?
I've thought for a long time Iago's hate runs much deeper than the offense of being passed over. Even the cuckholding charge is suspect and it seems Iago doesn't believe it I think Iago hated Othello naturally, the whole time he was associated with him and once he was passed over he had no reason left to redirect it. He may have turned on Othello anyway, even if he had been promoted because it was he end of the line. And the rumors of Othello cuckholding him is likely a reflection of how sycophantic to Othello Iago had appeared throughout his career.
very useful, thank you very much sir.
