Answer 1

Here is the analysis for each sentence:

1. **She couldn't hardly fit the book in her purse.**
- **Double Negative**
(The use of "couldn't" and "hardly" together creates a double negative.)

2. **We didn't tell nobody about the broken window.**
- **Double Negative**
(The use of "didn't" and "nobody" together creates a double negative.)

3. **The manager hisself took the mop and cleaned up the mess.**
- **Incorrect Intensive Pronoun**
(The correct form should be "himself," not "hisself.")

4. **The amusement park was way cool!**
- **Slang**
(The term "way cool" is informal and considered slang.)

5. **Because I studied, the test was no sweat.**
- **Slang**
(The phrase "no sweat" is informal and considered slang.)

In summary:
1. Double Negative
2. Double Negative
3. Incorrect Intensive Pronoun
4. Slang
5. Slang
