Q

A light humour joke is used in the passage, a hidden joke in the context of the subject of yourself. It can be seen in the description of Lisín, for example the author is making fun of her and her life.

A

Usáidtear greahn éadirom sa sliocht, greann’ atà ceilte i gcomhthéacs an
ábhair, cuid mhaith. Tá sé le sonrú sa chur síos a dhéantar ar Lisín, mar
shampla go bhfuil an t-údar ag magadh fúithi agus faoina saol.

87
Q

Social class is both worshiped and mocked in the passage.
We are told that Lisín is a member of many organizations and
clubs, not for the benefit of the community but for her image
(to strengthen yourself in the eyes of the neighbors.)

A

Déantar aoradh agus scigmhagadh ar an aicme shóisialta sa sliocht.
Organisations
Deirtear linn go bhfuil Lisín ina ball de mhórán eagraíochtaí agus
clubanna, ní ar mhaithe le leas an phobail ach ar mhaithe lena híomhá

95
Q

It’s clear that the author is mocking rich peoples lives.

A

Is léir go raibh an scríbhneoir ag scigmhagadh faoi shaol daoine rachmasacha.
Tá aoradh le brath sa chur síos ar na mná ar an ascaill agus nuair a deireann an scríbhneoir go bhfuil lisín foirfe.
