Answer 2

Through the use of formal language and informal dialogue, Zora Neale Hurston was able to convey her own cultural experiences.

Step-by-step explanation: Zora Neale Hurston, a famous writer during the Harlem Renaissance wrote her famous "Their Eyes were Watching God". It narrates the story of a black woman in Harlem that depicts issues of race and gender issues prevalent in those times through it's main character Janie Crawford. After two failed marriages, she fell in love with a much younger man, Tea Cake. Though she had married for love, she is reluctant to publicly accept him as her husband because of the social pressure and the opinion of the people and what they may say. Throughout the story, we find the various characters talking in formal and informal language, contrasting between the two. And it is through this pattern that the author Hurston is able to successfully convey her own cultural experiences within the novel.
