Figurative language in literature with examples


Figurative Language
Descriptive language used to make comparisons and to employ the reader’s own imagination.

Example: See simile, metaphor, and personification.


Rhetoric
Carefully chosen words and phrases that combine to achieve artful and effective communication and even persuasion. Example: A political campaign speech.

Semantics
The study of meaning through signs, symbols, and words and how a person interprets these. Example: The sense and manner in which ideas are conveyed are both part of the semantics involved in communica- tion.

Style
The characteristic and often perfected manner of writ- ing by any given novelist, poet, or dramatist. Exam- ple: Hemingway’s taut, disciplined, journalistic style came to identify and characterize all of his work as a writer.
