Presentation transcript:

Alliteration The repetition of initial consonant sounds in successive or closely associated syllables Ex: She sells sea-shells down by the sea- shore.

Antithesis Parallel structure to highlight contrast ...to those he touched and who sought to touch him: “Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not.” Edward Kennedy -- Eulogy For Robert F. Kennedy, 1968

Anastrophe The order of the noun and the adjective in the sentence is exchanged. This reversed order creates a dramatic impact and lends weight to the description offered by the adjective. Ex: He spoke of times past and future and dreamt of things to be. Ex: anything Yoda says: Powerful you have become; the dark side I sense in you.

Chiasmus A rhetorical device in which two or more clauses are balanced against each other by the reversal of their structures in order to produce an artistic effect. Occurs when a phrase is repeated, but reversed, to make a point or emphasize an action. Ex: Never let a Fool Kiss You or a Kiss Fool You. Ex: “Do I love you because you’re beautiful? Or are you beautiful because I love you?”

Colloquial The use of informal words, phrases or even slang in a piece of writing. Ex: go nuts – go insane or be very angry Ex: look blue -look sad Ex: buzz off – go away

Hypophora A figure of speech in which a writer raises a question and then immediately provides an answer to that question. (Commonly, a question is asked in the first paragraph and then the paragraph is used to answer the question.) Ex: “What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.” (Palm Sunday: An Autobiographical Collage by Kurt Vonnegut)

Zeugma A single word, usually a noun or verb, that governs multiple parts of a sentence. An interesting device that can cause confusion in sentences, while also adding some flavor. It is sometimes utilized to create drama, add emotion, or produce some sort of shock value. Ex: She opened her door and her heart to the orphan. Ex: He opened his mind and his wallet at the movies. Ex: He fished for compliments and for trout.
