The answer is a living, breathing entity.

In chinua achebe's novel things fall apart, the igbo language plays an essential role. achebe inserts the igbo language into a novel that is written in english. the appearance of the igbo language has multiple effects.first, using the igbo language allows achebe to fully illustrate igbo people and culture. readers get a sense of the rhythm and beauty of the igbo language. therefore, option d. is an acceptable answer.furthermore, the igbo language allows achebe to define things that do not have an equivalent in english. the igbo have words and concepts for things that westerners do not. while that does not mean english is necessarily an incomplete language, it does mean that the english language alone is not enough to understand the igbo way of life. therefore, option c. is also an acceptable answer.finally, achebe uses the igbo language to demonstrate the great oral culture of the okonkwo's people. he uses igbo  terms that define the igbo way of life, including their structures and beliefs. this way of life was destroyed by western colonization, and using the igbo language preserve this way of life in the reader's mind. as a result, the appearance of the  igbo language solidify the village in the reader's mind.  therefore, option a. is also an acceptable answer.option b. (a way to sneak through subversive messages) is not an effect created by the use of the igbo language. achebe is not using the igbo language to convey secret or subversive messages to the reader. as a result, option b. would not be an acceptable answer.
