What is personification, in other words

Explanation:

"the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form. " So its something where you say what you mean and you mean what you say. " Don't hold your tongue or lose your head while in this land .Don't pull somebody's leg or lend someone a hand.  And if your heart is on your sleeve put it back in . And try hard not to get under somebody's skin.

dear miss layla

while looking through books for my class period i noticed the library cards in the books.most of them are torn or have no space to write out our names anymore.would we be able to replace them?

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
