FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE WORKSHOP Be Cool Like Me… LEARN METONYMY (AND SYNECDOCHE)

WEIRD WORDS…WHAT ARE THEY? SYNECDOCHEMETONYMY “NICE WHEELS!” MRS. HUVAL EXCLAIMED. THE WHITE HOUSE REFUSED TO COMMENT ON THE LEAKED INFORMATION.

THE DEFINITIONS SYNECDOCHE  In synecdoche, a part of something is used to refer to the whole entity, or a whole entity is used to refer to part of something. METONYMY  Metonymy uses figurative expressions that are closely associated with the subject in terms of place, time or background. The figurative expression is not a physical part of the subject.

LET’S LOOK AT IT AGAIN… SYNECDOCHEMETONYMY “NICE WHEELS!” MRS. HUVAL EXCLAIMED. The wheels are a part of the car. THE WHITE HOUSE REFUSED TO COMMENT ON THE LEAKED INFORMATION. The White House is associated with the presidency, but is not a physical part of it.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? BOTH SYNECDOCHE AND METONYMY: ARE METAPHORICAL EXPRESSIONS USE RELATIONSHIPS TO MAKE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THINGS CAN BE MISTAKEN FOR ONE ANOTHER Usually, the difference is that Synecdoche uses a part of the whole or uses the whole to describe the part, whereas Metonymy uses a related idea.

See if you can tell the difference… We’re members of the red-neck yacht club “Nice Kicks,’ said Benny Red neck is a synecdoche; red neck is a part of a person associated with being outdoors in the sun with the neck exposed. The neck is the part that identifies the whole. Kicks is a metonymy, because shoes are used to kick, but kick is not a part of shoes.

How about these? Canada beat America in the Olympic Hockey competition. Sign your “John Hancock” right on the dotted line! Synecdoche, because the whole (Canada) is used to refer to the part (Hockey team). Metonymy – a term related to signatures – the largest on the Dec of Ind--is used in place of signature.

Are you catching on yet? How about a Band-Aid to help with your cut? Lend me a hand before I drop this on my foot! Synecdoche- using the specific brand to stand for the product: adhesive bandage strips. Synecdoche– I need more than just your hand to help me, here!! The part (hand) stands for the whole person.

LAST EXAMPLE!!!!! In May, The 9/11 memorial museum opened at Ground Zero. Although I didn’t want to go further into debt, I paid for these with plastic. Synecdoche, because plastic is a component part of the credit card Metonymy- 9/11 is used to stand for the terror attacks in NYC on September 11, 2001.
