1. Her earliest memory of him was his chin. She was unable to converse in sign language with him, so she used physical language, such as playing games and holding hands, to communicate with him.
2. This title expresses how ideas and emotions can be expressed in ways other than sound. "Words left unspoken" are the words that can be communicated through physical means. Therefore, they do not need to be said.
3. Her and her grandfather communicated on a personal level through touch and other physical means. While walking home, she was able to have a prolonged one on one physical conversation with him. They did not even need to look at one another to express their feelings.
4. She uses a simile to describe her grandfather's voice. When she said that the cards lay face down, that is personification. She also uses a metaphor when she mentioned that his hands were the instruments of his mind.
5. She means that all of her memories of him seem like they all have significant meaning as to who he was and how he felt about her and everyone else. I think this is a great way to end and essay. It makes the readers remember what happened in the essay, and try to find the significance in each thing.
