What is your opinion about Teshumai?
Answers
Answer:
The stranger was mistaken that Tegumai would be slain by his enemies who were coming up from all sides with spears. He also thought that the chief's enemies were hiding in the bushes. So he ran off like the wind to get help for him.
Explanation:
Answer:
The meaning of Tegumai is Man who does not put his foot forward in a hurry. He lived up to his name when he showed patience in mending his spear and did not just rush off home or send Taffy back to get another spear. He also did not ask Taffy too many questions about what she had been doing when he was busy repairing his spear, or about her conversation with the Stranger-man. He was patient and cautious. b. The meaning of Taffimai is Small-person- without any manners who ought to be spanked. She lived up to her name in the way in which she ordered the stranger ‘Come here’, stamped her foot and called him silly. She wanted the stranger to do her bidding and she succeeded in it. She pulled off the shark’s tooth from his necklace without his permission. She would not tell her father what she had done and she wanted him to promise to be surprised. This was a silly thing to do but he did it. c. The meaning of Teshumai is Lady-who-asks- very many-questions. Though she did not ask many questions, she talked and shouted continuously at the poor stranger. She drew wrong conclusions and she spoke continuously to her friends telling them all that she had understood from Taffy’s drawing.Read more on Sarthaks.com - https://www.sarthaks.com/1535252/following-characters-story-live-their-names-provide-points-from-story-tegumai-bopsulai
