4 What is Conceit? Conceit is figure of speech where two polar opposite objects are compared using similes and metaphors. In other words conceit can be described by using imagery and common knowledge to compare objects to one another. Most conceits tend to be surprising.

5 Examples of Conceit… “Love is like an oil change.” “The broken heart is a damaged china pot.” “My life is like a free online game, people seem to be playing with it.”

6 What is an Adage? An adage is a proverb or short statement expressing a general truth. An old saying, which has become well known over time. Adages are regularly confused with aphorisms. An aphorism as Devyn stated last week is a brief original statement or phrase showing a concept or thought. Examples of Aphorism: A bad penny always turns up. A barking dog never bites. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

7 Examples of Adages… A penny saved is a penny earned. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Eat to live, and not live to eat. Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise. Fish and visitors stink after three days.

8 Which is a Conceit and which is a Adage? 1.God helps them that help themselves. 2.Marriage is like getting a root canal. 3.Childbirth is like having a nail driven through your foot. 4.Well done is better than well said.
