George Orwell presents his views on the inhabitants of the town by using descriptive language. “windows were flung open on every side and half the street joined the quarrel”. Using the word quarrel to portray the way the community communicate my imply that it is a close community in which every resident may know the other. This is due to the fact that larger communities in which the people do not know each other as well may not feel as inclined to join such a dispute. Therefore I believe that by using descriptive language George Orwell portrays the inhabitants of the town to be associated with one another through the use of descriptive language.
