Anthem (pgs 34-67)

Summary
Something I did not catch in the beginning about the people in this society all though Equality 7-2521 says "we" and "our" what he really means is "I" and "my" so this explains a lot about their type of dialect. International 4-8818 and Equality 7-2521 decided they will keep it a secret from the Council. Each night Equality 7-2521 will go to that special place and spend 3 hours there. Stolen manuscripts and had handwritten them, but also able to learn things Equality 7-2521 wasn't suppose to know. It was forbidden to take notice of women, and women to take notice of men. Equality 7-2521 would always think of Liberty 5-3000, Liberty 5-3000 work in the soil life in the Home of the Peasants. Liberty 5-3000 started to notice Equality 7-2521, and they began to greet each other without anyone suspecting them. Equality 7-2521 gave Liberty 5-3000 a new name which was the Golden One this is another sin added onto the list. People in that society are not allowed to be married actually when it comes to the right age of having children, mates are picked by the Council of Eugenics. Women never see their children, and children never know their parents. Equality 7-2521 decided to talk to Liberty 5-3000 when all alone working in the fields. Was surprise to find out that since Liberty 5-3000 was 17 soon to go to the Palace of Mating, this made Equality 7-2521 sad, but then happy because of the ability to talk to her. Equality 7-2521 started to realize how different he was from his brothers, Fraternity 2-5503, and Solidarity 9-6347. Then Equality 7-2521 started to look into this Uncharted Forest, of the unmentionable times with the unspeakable word that is the greatest sin of them all and Equality 7-2521 had discovered a new power of nature which the Council of Scholars say it doesn't exist. It was a frog experiment having to do with zinc and copper. Liberty 5-3000 named Equality 7-2521, the Unconquered. Equality 7-2521 knew with the discovery it had to be protected with the tunnel it was a sin of discovery. Equality 7-2521 got caught and got lashes because he didn't tell he has been doing.

Quotation
This is when Equality 7-2521 is talking about the unmentionable times and asks this simple question to himself, "What is the Unspeakable Word?" (Rand 51).

Reaction
Honestly I do not know what the word that is forbidden to be said in his society, but I could take a guess I think it is "I" that is the word these people cannot say. It is strange because they say we and us a lot you would honestly think there is a group of people under one name walking around together, but it is the way the society works there is no such thing as I and me. I cannot wait until Equality 7-2521 finds out these unspeakable words will he use them, who knows but he does like spending most of his time in that tunnel. He is figuring out that there is something not right about his society but where is the person to guide him lead him the way to success. Will he find that guidance in the tunnel or is he just all alone? Maybe it is Liberty 5-3000 the guidance who knows. I have a feeling that Equality 7-2521 will start using this unspeakable word. When he finds it would he know how to pronounce or even use it in his own use of dialect?
