figurative language

  • simile : a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid
  • metaphor :a figure of speech that identifies something as being the same as some unrelated thing for rhetorical effect, thus highlighting the similarities between the two. While a simile compares two items, a metaphor directly equates them, and does not use "like" or "as" as does a simile.
  • onomatopoeia : the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named
  • imagery : visually descriptive or figurative language, especially in a literary work
  • foreshadowing : be a warning or indication of a future event
  • allusion : an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly; an indirect or passing reference
  • alliteration : the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words
  • personification : the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.
  • symbol : a thing that represents or stands for something else, especially a material object representing something abstract
