Question

Read the passage

“ Well they got gumption,anyhow. They told them white folks up yonder in the office just what they thought of ‘em “That’s what they did.”

Which word phrase best indicates the use of dialect in “gumption”?

A.)In the office

B.)Just what they thought

C.)Anyhow

D.)Up yonder

Answer 1

D.)Up yonder

"Up yonder" is the best fit for the question. It uses the same dialect as "gumption". Dialect is a way of speaking that is specific to a particular region or culture. Other phrases that show this dialect are "them white folks" and "thought of 'em". "In the office" and "Just what they thought" are common phrases that are not specific to any region or culture. "Anyhow" isn't as widely used as the other two phrases, but it is also not considered specific to any particular group.

Answer 2

Hello everyone and the CORRECT answer is D.) Up yonder have a nice day and i hope this helps :)
