Explanation and Analysis:

The style of Wuthering Heights varies between sweeping, mood-setting description to a dextrous use of dialect that gives insight into characters' beliefs and moral states. In particular, Brontë uses sentence structure and diction of varying complexity, as well as class-coded dialect (fancier and educated vs. heavily accented and implicitly uneducated) to establish tone and advance the narrative.
