Read the excerpt from Infinite Jest. I have committed to crossing my legs I hope carefully, ankle on knee, hands together in the lap of my slacks. My fingers are mated into a mirrored series of what manifests, to me, as the letter X. The interview room’s other personnel include: the University’s Director of Composition, its varsity tennis coach, and Academy prorector Mr. A. deLint. C. T. is beside me; the others sit, stand and stand, respectively, at the periphery of my focus. The tennis coach jingles pocket-change.

Which phrase or sentence is the best example of unusual language?

ankle on knee, hands together in the lap

The interview room’s other personnel include

the others sit, stand and stand, respectively

The tennis coach jingles pocket-change.

"ankle on knee, hands together in the lap "

Explanation:

Simply put, an unusual language can be the type of language that is not normally used in a conversation or speech. It can be a weird way of saying things or even a different structuring of the words in a sentence that seems to mean something other than the intended one.

From the given excerpt of David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest", the example of an unusual language is the use of the words "ankle on knee, together in the lap". This sounds weird in itself, considering the sentence frame. How can the ankle be on the knee and both hands together in the lap? But though it sounds weird, it is just the description of how the character was sitting in front of the others.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

i think the best choice would be as follows: establishing the meaning of words in english and spanish. hope this

1.creeping like a snail is a simile used in this poem and it means the child is going to school unwillingly./a child is unwilling to go to school.

2. man becomes very frail and loses his physical strength when he becomes old, so much that his leggings that used to fit him snugly when he was in his youth are now too loose for him to wear, and that his shank has shrunk so much that this worldly stage is too big for a feeble actor like him. although, 'his youthful hose' just refers to his leggings/pants/ to shrink from danger; to shrink from contact.

3.the words "sans" means "without." it is a french word that is often used in english even today. so he is saying that in the last age of a man, the man is without eyes, taste, or anything else. he also says that this is the "last stage of all" and that it is the stage that ends a man's "history."

hope this !
