Answers
In "Mother Tongue" , Amy Tan described that her mother's language was "impeccable broken English" to highlight the flaws in English as her mother spoke them.
Note: As there is no option given in this question, so we do not have any option to chooser among them and describe which one can best describe the meaning of statement. So I would make a general interpretation of this answer.
Amy's mother claimed that a language has the power to bring up about a person's emotion, or some truth and many thing else. The English that she used to speak had certain "limitations" and the poet sarcastically used the word "impeccable" here to show the contrast of something being flawless with that of her English which had a number of faults in its diction and grammar.
