In “Mother to Son”, Langston Hughes most likely uses words like I’se, climbin’, kinder, and ain’t because of all of the following EXCEPT

a) He wants to create a lyrical, rhythmic quality

b) He wants to convey the dialect and essence of the time period c) He uses contractions that mirror everyday speech to help the reader relate to the character d)  He wants to portray the Mother as an African-American from a rural area who is most likely uneducated
