Answer 1

Answer:

Gregor has lost the ability to speak.

Explanation:

Gregor Samsa is the main character in Franz Kafka's novel "The Metamorphosis". Gregor is a traveling salesman who lives an unfulfilling life. One day, he wakes up transformed into an insect. He loses his ability to speak, his voice is no longer human. Unable to convey his feelings and thoughts, Gregor is segregated from his own family. They struggle to see past his new exterior form. His mother, for instance, believes that that bug is not her Gregor, that the real Gregor will return someday.
