An allusion is an indirect reference, meaning it is a subtle or indirect mention or reference to something else. It is not a line from the Bible or an image that can be seen visually but is not present in reality. Instead, an allusion is a way for a writer or speaker to refer to something without explicitly stating it, often using a reference to literature, history, mythology, or popular culture. This allows the writer to add depth and complexity to their work by drawing on the reader's existing knowledge or associations.

The dialect also adds authenticity and depth to the characters, emphasizing their backgrounds and experiences within the specific setting of the story.
