Abstract
Ginger (Zingiber officinalis) and vinegar is made as an organic insecticide. Ginger is a tropical plant that was spread around the tropical world during the colonial days. In Africa, Asia, or South America, and many hot spots between those continents, locals have taken to using ginger widely in medicine and food. The entire ginger family is rich in oils that both kill micro-critters and stimulate the immune system to do the same. The ways it stimulates the body are many, and, whether added to food or taken as a medicinal tea, ginger makes your body a little bit stronger and a little bit better and able to resist the damaging forces of nature.

    In the novel Perfume I was most struck by the author Patrick Suskind’s eloquence in use of techniques. His effective use of technique allows the reader to continuously gets better acquainted with the characters. The combination of direct characterization and cataloguing results in the reader being given a variety of descriptions that reinforces a single characteristic of the character. The author gives the reader “easy” to comprehend information repeatedly, because without it, the reader could not understand the bizarre nature of the psychopathic main character. In doing so, Suskind has enabled the reader to soak in information about the character subconsciously and actively focus on the message he is trying to convey. Another effective combination that Suskind utilized was juxtaposition and direct characterization. The author provided comparisons for the readers, which strengthens their pre-acquired image of the character in their minds. The use of juxtaposition clearly demonstrates the differences between the character and the norms of society. This constant repetition of an idea ensures that Suskind is passing on his message about societies superficial state. Along with juxtaposition and cataloguing Suskind compares and contrasts two opposite scenarios to show the importance of one of them. This essay will focus on Suskind’s effective use of the technique; direct characterization and the effects of it.…
