The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
by Washington Irving (excerpt)
About two hundred yards from the tree, a small brook crossed the road, and ran into a marshy and thickly-wooded glen, known by the name of
Wiley's Swamp. A few rough logs, laid side by side, served for a bridge over this stream. On that side of the road where the brook entered the
wood, a group of oaks and chestnuts, matted thick with wild grapevines, threw a cavernous gloom over it. To pass this bridge was the severest
trial. It was at this identical spot that the unfortunate André was captured, and under the covert of those chestnuts and vines were the sturdy
yeomen concealed who surprised him. This has ever since been considered a haunted stream, and fearful are the feelings of the schoolboy who
has to pass it alone after dark.

a pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel sticking out of his pants.

bartender: isn't that uncomfortable?

pirate: arrgh! it's drivin' me nuts!

hey there

use of language is very important in order to write in a good way. each literary genre has its different exploitation of language and, therefore, many differences and similarities can emerge. shakespeare's work (romeo and juliet) is a sample of a drama. its language is full of dialogue to describe the beauty of first love in people; everything it's pink color. it briefly describes fictional scenes and situations. on the other hand, the calypso borealis, by john muirs, it's narrative essay: its language is full of descriptions to describe an experience, a real experience. hyperbole is not used as in drama genre. he falls in love with discovering a real place and his direct feelings.
