By Kelsey Motyl

Didactic makes the author sound intelligent seem superior to the reader It has an instructive tone for moral and ethical ideas EX: “the anthropologist has become so familiar with the diversity of ways in which different people behave in similar situations that he is not apt to be surprised by even the most exotic customs.” Ex: “That it is as great a fault to judge ill as to write ill, and a more dangerous one to the public.” EX: “Let such teach others who themselves excel, And censure freely who have written well”

Euphemism Giving a pleasant name to something unplesant. The use of euphemisms are to keep the standards of society EX: There was an aroma coming from the flowers. [“aroma” is used instead of “smell” ] Ex: Her grandmother passed away. [ “pass away” is used instead of “died”] Ex: Her clothes were unique. [“unique” instead of “ugly”]

Extended Metaphor A reoccurring metaphor A metaphor that appears frequently throughout a work Ex: “Cast down your bucket…cast down his bucket…cast it down in agriculture…” Ex: Climb the tallest mountains…. Continue the climb to the top of the mountain…. There will be reward for those who climb the mountain Ex: Fly away to a new land… discover excitement in a new land that you journey to… flap your wings…

Figurative Language Writing that is not intended to carry literal meaning and is usually meant to be imaginative and vivid. More than what it says on the surface. A comparison between two things that may not at first seem to relate to one another Ex: The cement was as hot as a stove Ex: She sells seashells down by the sea shore Ex: The wind whispered

Figure of Speech A device used to produce figurative language comparing dissimilar things Figures of speech are apostrophe, hyperbole, irony, metaphor, oxymoron, paradox, personification, simile, and understatement Ex: Hello darkness, my old friend, I’ve come to talk with you again [apostrophe] Ex: a small crowd [oxymoron] Ex: I am about to have surgery. It’s not serious though. I just have a tumor on my brain [understateme nt]
