Gulliveer's Travels 03/9/09

Questions that I've come up with consist of the following:

1. What do you think the origin of Hekinah degul derived from?

I asked this question because I feel it’s relevant to know the origin of the language to possibly have a better understanding of the story. A term could come up that’s very common in that languages that if I did some research I will understand.

2 .What do you feel the main theme of this excerpt was?

This is a common literary question that is always asked.

3. Do you think if the Lilliputians weren’t in fear of Gulliver, would he still be a royal figure?

I asked this because when you read about royal figures they are usually feared. You never here about groups are praising someone who is so sweet and kind. I feel that fear is a main characteristic that is found in a leader.
