Sagot :

1: Lincoln's address starts with “Four score and seven years ago.” A score is equal to 20 years, so he was referencing 87 years ago — 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was signed. The speech was made, then, seven score and seven years ago.

2: ?

3:In a speech of only three short paragraphs, Lincoln uses a form of the word “dedicate” six times.

4:?

5: Lincoln says that the men who died at Gettysburg have consecrated the battleground (part of which is now the cemetery Lincoln helped to dedicate with his speech) through their deaths. The impact of their sacrifice is profound, Lincoln said, because it reminded Americans of their need for sacrifice.
