In paragraph 2and again in paragraph 21, Tan refers to “all the Englishes I grew up with.” How does she classify these various “Englishes”? Name each that you see and tell me how it is different from either Standard English or the other Englishes she knows. Building on Tan's point of many Englishes, how do all the variations of English we use every day shape our culture today? Think about your own life. Don't you speak differently to different people? I do. One way at home, another with my parents, another with friends, another at work, another with strangers. How do you speak differently in different settings? What does that say about you in particular or us as human beings? Each deserves its own full paragraph.

Westridge, ohio — more than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the westridge city council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. the strike affects all bus and rail services throughout westridge and the neighboring communities of turlock, smithfield, and lowell grove. "we hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice," said wanda thompson, a representative of the transportation employees union. "we simply don't get paid what we deserve." members of the westridge city council see the situation differently. "our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs," said raoul cobian, president of the westridge city council. hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end. what is the common name for the underlined information in the article?
