The following excerpt is from a news conference given by President Kennedy in 1962.

(I would include it but it's way too long... it should be online though) I included the last paragraph of it here just for reference:

"…Some time ago I asked each American to consider what he would do for his country and I asked the steel companies. In the last 24 hours, we had their answer."


Question:

The use of the pronoun "we" in the final sentence of this excerpt ("…we had their answer.")


- clarifies that Kennedy is speaking about executives, not steel company workers

- establishes Kennedy's authority over American people and their corporations

- identifies the group of Americans making the greatest sacrifice during this time

- reiterates the sacrifices that American industry is making at the moment

- unites Kennedy with the everyday Americans to whom he is speaking

Sagot :

adioabiola

The use of the pronoun "we" in the final sentence of the excerpt; unites Kennedy with the everyday Americans to whom he is speaking.

Plural Pronouns

From the excerpt, it follows that the speech was addressed to the citizens which indicates All Americans.

The last sentence reads thus; In the last 24 hours, we had their answer.

The use of the first person plural pronoun, we indicates that Kennedy was referring to himself and the everyday Americans as used in the context.
