02br
02u

00It's part of my essay question I need to explain what 01b01u00and02u02b00 means in sentences of a novel of my choice, the thing is I have to write about 1500-2000 words but I can only find simple information on what 01b01u00and02u02b00 means so how can I elaborate in more details?02br
02br
00Examples of what I need to write about:02br
02br
00"Great Expectations"02br
01i00"Now, it was all coarse 01b01u00and02u02b00 common, 01b01u00and02u02b00 I would not have had Miss Havisham 01b01u00and02u02b00 Estella see it on any account."02br
