Gatsby uses the term old sport to address the people he talks to. It is used to represent Gatsby's belief that he is above other people in terms of wealth and social status. The term in used in constant repetition throughout the novel and is highlighted by Fitzgerald frequently.

Fitzgeral continuously used 'and' when describing the shirts Gatsby was throwing down to Daisy to overwhelm the reader in the sentence as usually 'and' would not be used that number of times.

"Shirts with stripes and scrolls and plaids in coraland apple-green and lavender and faint orange, and monograms of Indian blue."The use of adjectives such as "apple green" "Indian blue" and "lavender" not only creates a vivid picture of the flourishes of colour, but also adds the symbolic meaning that time and seasons which have seen them apart during Gatsby and Daisy's separation. The repetition of the word "and" when listing these colours, creates an overwhelming feeling of the excessive amounts of clothing he owns, emphasising his wealth and gaudiness. -Elli and Bella

after years of hope and desire, Gatsby reunites with daisy, and by visiting his house, she is finally once again in his life. in this sense, Gatsby is a clock that has been barely ticking, and now, bursting into his life, Daisy is the wind-up key that has pushed him into hyper-function. as well as being a statement to his unbridled joy and excitement, this also foreshadows that Daisy will be the cause of his eventual demise. she has "over-wound" him, and in doing so, he is going to "run down".

this quote relates to the carelessness of people in the upper class as gold is rare and exotic, not dull. people of the upper class take things for granted and describes something special like gold, as dull. showcasing the theme of materialism

# data[].attributes.body
The irony of this paradoxical phrase, depicting the gold as pure, yet dull, explores the concept of empty materialism and dissatisfaction; the gold is pure and elaborate, yet seen as "dull" and unimportant. Similarly, Gatsby has elaborate material possessions, yet they are empty and meaningless to him compared to the value placed on Daisy. This also relates to the character of Daisy, who is portrayed as "pure and innocent", yet has dull and empty values and little depth.

The wistful, nostalgic tone/mood created by use of imagery, vivid descriptions, long sentences and specific word choices such as "period bedrooms swathed in rose and lavender silk and vivid with new flowers" mimics Gatsby's surreal, hazy, dream-like interpretation of the proceedings

showcases the immateriality of Gatsby's wealth when he compares it to the value with which he regards Daisy. This aligns with his objective of wooing Daisy with his self-made success.

"That's my affair" The short terse dialogue expresses Gatsby's natural defensiveness in regards to the acquisition of his wealth. However, following this it is shown that Gatsby then "realized that it wasn't an appropriate reply" showing that after some thought, Gatsby remembers his decorum and appearance of manners as well as the fact that he can likely trust Nick based on the merit of his actions thus far.

"I'm glad, Jay." 'Her throat full of aching, grieving beauty told only of her unexpected joy.'  (This highlights her tone and the overwhelming sense of joy she is experiencing)'

Juxtaposition of Gatsby and Daisy's values.
Nick points out that to Gatsby
with " [Daisy's] actual and astounding presence none of [his possessions were] any longer real.
While on the other hand, Daisy seems to be lost/ enraptured in the wealth she is surrounded by.

ANALYSIS: "in the big panic - the panic of the war"

When Nick questions whether Gatsby inherited his money or not in a confused way, Gatsby replies:
" I did, old sport", automatically. This shows that he is so used to misleading people with false information about himself that has now become an automated response. This is further proved when Gatsby adds: "but i lost most of it in the big panic - the panic of the war". The hyphen within this sentence show him stuttering ultimately proving he's lying.

"Pure dull gold." Irony when describing gold as dull, as gold is something which isn't usually described as dull.

the descriptions here aren't just limited to colour, the choice use of words like "apple green" and "lavender" instead of just green and purple makes the scene appear more alive and magical in our minds. the descriptive words used makes us associate the shirts with other things of splendor and beauty, creating a sensation of an even heavier sadness regarding Daisy and Gatsby's separation in comparison with the riches and extraordinary experiences of Gatsby's past five years alone. and the repeated use of the word "and" makes the entire scene seem even more overwhelming, amplifying the nostalgia between the two and their unspoken regret.

- "he was running down like an over-wound clock"
Simile which compares him to an over-wound clock, which depicts him as falling apart and forgetting/losing his perfect composure he planned to demonstrate when they reunited.

- repetition of "old sport" signifies apocryphal status & acquisition of wealth as it seems effortful and contrived

- "that's my affair" - short, abrupt sentence shows his paranoia and defensiveness, encouraging the reader to question the means in which he acquired his money
