notes :SIMILE

Simile is a figure of speech in which something is compared with another and

said to be like it. This is in contradiction to metaphor,

where one thing is said to be the same as another. A simile

is usually introduced be ‘like’ and ‘as’ -

Example:

She is like an angel.

Your mouth is like a section

of road that is being worked

EXAGGERATION

Exaggeration is a statement which is made emphatic by overstatement. Such as

expression is not meant to be taken literally. It means claiming something is greater than it really is.



Example:

She shed an ocean of tears.

But it isn't because then

coats your mouth from cellar

to roof.

PUN

Pun is a figure of speech that consists in a play on the various meanings of a word and is mostly used in humorous sense.

Example:

Not on thy sole but on thy

sole harsh jew

Thou mak'st they knife keen

And your teeth are supposed

to be being polished

But you have reason to

believe they are being

demolished.
