Read the excerpt from Act I, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo: What lady is that which doth enrich the hand
Of yonder knight?

Now read the adaptation.

Romeo: Who is that lady that knight is stuck with?

The adaptation needs revision because it:
changes the tone.
changes the diction.
uses literal language.
uses figurative language.

Answer: Uses literal language. The correct translation would be something along the lines of "Who is the girl on the arm of that lucky knight over there?"
