In the passage taken from a travel site the author uses literary strategies to recreate for the reader his first experience at a wedding in Mongolia. The author does this by creating connections with different American-style traditions, through his diction, images that then create a satirical and entertaining atmosphere. Within the passage, the author begins to build characters for us, including the man who visited Mongolia and the wedding guests. The author used an elaborate amount of literary strategies in his poetry to portray the Mongolian foreigner as a carefree and fun man who was not accustomed to any of the Mongolian traditions. The setting is set through diction and imagery, for the reader. Phrases such as "old Russian truck... decorations included a poster of the inspirational figure Batardene, the national wrestling champion..." were used to describe the wedding setting. Mongolian traditions are extended to the reader and also to the characters' points of view. The tone is generated through the author's diction with phrases such as "old Russian trick, the equivalent of the wedding Rolls-Royce", the reader can tell that the piece is lighthearted and satirical. The author wrote this passage in a descriptive writing style with different styles of sentence structure, paragraph structure, and descriptive imagery to convey contrast.

The sentence structure used varied throughout the piece, but most sentences were long and flowing. In moments when the author changes the structure, creates emphasis, for example... in the middle of the paper... cakes", the "old Russian truck" into a "Rolls-Royce" and so on.
