I know the passage is VERY long!! Sorry.
One of the French experts, Sylvestre de Sacy, started with the proper names in the Greek passage and tried to find their equivalents in the demotic version. He believed that, after he’d singled out the names, he would be able to identify the demotic letters in each of them. With these letters in hand, he could then go on to translate other names and words in the demotic passage.
But the process proved to be much more difficult than de Sacy had anticipated. He succeeded in isolating the groups of demotic letters for the names of Ptolemy and Alexander, but found it impossible to identify the individual letters in the names. Eventually he gave up, saying, “The problem is too complicated, scientifically insoluble.”
A pupil of de Sacy’s, the Swedish diplomat Johan Akerblad, made better progress. Akerblad managed to locate in the demotic passage all the proper names that occurred in the Greek. From them he constructed a “demotic alphabet” of twenty-nine letters, almost half of which later proved to be correct.

(a) What type of poem is "Elliptical"? Explain. (b) In what ways does the choice of form affect how the reader experiences the poem? (c) Rewrite the poem, adding line breaks that make sense to you. Compare with the original. What is lost and what is gained by the poet's choice of form?
Answer:
"Elliptical" is a prose poem.
Rewritten with line breaks:
They just can’t seem to…
They should try harder to…
They ought to be more…
We all wish they weren’t so…
They never…
They always…
Sometimes they…
Once in a while they…

Nevertheless their behavior strikes us as…

Compare and contrast:
The poet's choice of form has pros and cons. On the one hand, because none of the sentences in the poem are completed, the paragraph-like structure of the poem could make it easy for the reader to get lost or bored. However, this may still have been a valid artistic choice. After all, the poem is about the "elliptical" of excuses for racism, so maybe it makes sense to have the reader get tired, and associate that weariness with those excuses. In contrast, making the poem have lines and stanzas, rather than a paragraph structure, makes the reader more likely to try to interpret the individual significance of each line, rather than look at what the lines all mean together.
Remembering that the Latin suffix “ful” means “full of,” and the suffix “ly” means “in what manner,” use this information and the context clues provided in the passage to determine the meaning of purposefully. Write your definition of purposefully here and explain how you determined it. Use a dictionary to verify your preliminary determination of the word’s meaning.
Answer:
A standard dictionary definition would been a way that shows determination or resolve. Within the context of the book, I think the meaning is similar with a special emphasis on understanding and processing information without distraction.
Explanation:
Answer:By recalling that the suffix “-er” means “a person who lives in,” use the base word “room” and the suffix “-er” to determine the meaning of roomers. Then use context clues to confirm the meaning of the word as it is used in paragraph 21 of “Thank You, M’am.” Write your definition of “roomers” here, and explain how you figured out the word’s meaning.
