I liked how in Amy Tan’s article, she brought up how in math, there is either a right or wrong answer while when it comes to literature, it relies more on judgement of the reader. I never was really good at math which is why I prefer writing over it because I knew that it was more of a subjective topic even if there are certain rules such as grammar rules. I also related to how language plays a big role in communication. Such as when I meet new people or peers, I have a hard time relating or connecting with them socially because of our communication differences whether it’d be slang or actual differences in language. I am an Asian American and my Chinese is not as good as it used to be and when I meet mainland Chinese people, it’s as if we’re a different species because of our language differences.
