Are you learning to speak English? Can you help us by explaining a little more what you want? ;-) - chaparrito, Nov 9, 2009
Things fall apart is a book. - pinkgurl87, Nov 9, 2009
Pinkgirl, here is the perfect example of why punctuation and capitalization is a must. No one knew what you were talking about! "Things Fall Apart" should have been written as I just did. - Yeser007, Nov 9, 2009

I wonder if this has anything to do with Yeats and "The Second Coming."? And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born? ......I used that line to end a presentation about the Civil War era vs. how things are today. Yeats is the man, although Browning is the king.

Hello Pinkgurl,
Before this post your questions were how to say something is Spanish not in English. Since you did not stated what is you native language in your profile, I am puzzled what language you are learning.

The bad punctuation in the question really led me to the left field. - Zoltán, Nov 9, 2009

Thanks for the input for the link issue! The parenthesis are supposed to be there, but the space between the brackets and the parenthesis was not...I have learned my "something new for the day" - lol

We don't really cover English literature here. If someone happens to know, I'm sure they will help you out, but you may get better results by searching online for a summary. Try here

Can anyone explain why I can't post a link? - aloshek, Nov 9, 2009
did you just post the link into the paragraph, or did you click on the insert link button??? - LAtINaPunKROcKerAConFundidA, Nov 9, 2009

Maybe the link can't post because it's in parenthesis.....?

I read that book, it was really good! smile

Okonkwo is the main character of the story. He has 3 wives and eight children. His first wife is never mentioned by name. She is mother to Nwoye, his oldest son, 2 other son’s, and a daughter name Obiageli, she also adopts Ikemefuna, the boy from the other warring tribe. His second wife, Ekwefi has several miscarriages, and therefore only had one daughter, Ezinma, often lovingly called Nma. His third wife, Ojiugo, therefore had 3 children by Okonkwo, whom only one is named, a girl, Nkechi (This is found on page 45 of the book.) Hope this clears your confusion up! smile
