In the story "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan, the narrator poses as her mother on the phone to ensure that her mother receives the respect and attention she deserves from others, given her mother's limited English proficiency. By acting as a mediator in these phone conversations, the narrator helps bridge communication barriers and ensures that her mother is understood and treated with respect.
