In most high school movies there is almost always a teacher's pet, jock, stoner, geek, and most importantly a mean girl.

Amy Tan's goal has changed slightly. While the Author wants to show the effect language has on one's daily life and how we perceive others who are different, she also wants to show how the language barrier affects our society overall.
