    Figure of Speech

    • A figure of speech is a word phrase using


    figurative language – language that has other
    meaning than its original definition.
    • The purpose of a figure of speech is to lend
    texture and color your writing.
    Common Types of
    Figure of Speech
    Simile
    It is a very common figure of speech that uses the
    words “like” and “as” to compare two things that are
    not related by definition.

    Examples:

    1. He is tall as a mountain.
    2. The internet is like a window to the world.
    3. The drumbeats sounded like distant thunder.
    metaphor
    A metaphor includes a word or phrase applied to an item that creates
    imagery and explains the situation better. In simple terms, metaphors
    state that one thing is another thing and makes a comparison between
    similarities of those items

    Examples:

    1. America is a melting pot.


    2. Life is a highway.
    3. His grief is an ocean.
    Idiom
    An idiom is a saying or phrase with a figurative meaning that's
    different from its literal meaning. It's basically a shortcut
    expression that everyone familiar with the language understands.

    Examples:

    1. Break a leg – Good luck


    2. See eye to eye – To agree or have the same opinion
    3. Once in a blue moon - Something happens very rarely
    ASSONANCE
    Assonance is a figure of speech that focuses on the repetition of vowel sounds
    in nearby words. It's not about rhyming, but rather creating a pleasing flow and
    emphasis through repeated vowel sounds.

    Examples:

    1. "The slight spark started a fire" (repeated "i"


    sound)
    2. "He rowed the boat along the slow, still river"
    (repeated "o" sound)
    Hyperbole
    Hyperbole is an exaggerated statement. It describes
    something to be worse or better than it actually is. It’s
    a way to catch the reader’s attention and to make
    writing more interesting.

    Examples:

    1. I was dying of laughter.


    2. I’m freezing.
    3. Weighs a ton.
    OXYMORON
    Oxymoron allow writers to combine two ideas with
    opposite meanings to create a deeper understanding
    or emphasis.
    Examples:

    1. Pretty ugly
    2. Acting natural
    3. Alone together
    4. Seriously funny
    personification
    When a writer attributes human characteristics, like abilities or
    aesthetic qualities, to something non-human, they personify that
    object or animal.

    Examples:

    1. “The moonlight danced across the mountain


    ridges.”
    2. “The story jumps right off the page.”
    3. “That piece of cake is calling my name.”
    alliteration
    Alliteration is the repetition of the same letter or sound at the beginning of
    words. Alliteration is used to make writing interesting for the reader- usually in
    poems. It also creates rhythm and mood. It is important to note that different
    repeated sounds will have different effects on the reader.

    Examples:

    1.The sly snake slithers slowly in the sand.


    2. Peter piper picked a peck of peppers.
    3. She sells seashells by the seashore.
    onomatopoeia
    Onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like what it describes. It is a language
    technique used to make it more interesting and helps the reader hear the sound
    in their minds.
    Examples:

    1.The lion roared.


    2. My phone rings.
    3. The wolf howled.
    4. The bee buzzled.
    let’s have an
    activity!

    Each group will analyze a literary text and
