Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is an adventure novel about a young boy named Huckleberry Finn in his search for adventure and freedom. The narration follows the young Finn on his journey away from his abusive drunk father, traveling along the Mississippi river along with a runaway slave Jim.

In the given excerpt from the text, the author uses this literary technique by making Jim, the black slave, speak in a particular dialect. This dialect is thought to be inspired and taken from the ne gro dialect that Twain was accustomed to in Florida, Missouri. Also, the slave characters in the story all seem to be conversing in this dialect.
