What makes the use of metonymy in line 85 effective?

English

kow [346]2 years ago

Metonymy was effectively used as C. Tongue is associated with weapons and the Pardoner is saying that he uses his tongue like a sword.

<h3>What is Metonymy?</h3>

The word "metonymy" is derived from the Greek word "metnyma," which means "changing of name." In a metaphor, an idea or item is referred to by the name of something that is closely related to it rather than by its actual names like a crown for “king or White House.”

Note that a metonymy is a figure of speech in which a thing is called by the name of another object that is closely related to it. It alludes to the figure of speech in which the word, among other things, is employed to denote a connected idea.

Since the tongue is often connected with weapons and the Pardoner is claiming that he utilizes his tongue like a sword in this situation, metonymy was successfully employed.

“Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,
coldgirl [10]

“Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,

That I shall say good night till it be morrow.”

This is line from William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Juliet says this to her lover Romeo. Although she is sad she has to say goodnight, she is also excited for the next time she will see him again. It was a sweet goodbye.

This line stayed relevant over the years because it embodied the passion and romance the play was famous for. It represented the tragedy that comes with love, the sadness that must come with happiness. It epitomized the mixed emotions in a relationship that people from all across generations can relate to.

Answer:

1) A cardiovascular system is an organ system that conveys blood through vessels to and from all parts of the body, carrying nutrients and oxygen to tissues and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes.

2) "Capillaries connect the arteries to veins. The arteries deliver the oxygen-rich blood to the capillaries, where the actual exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs. The capillaries then deliver the waste-rich blood to the veins for transport back to the lungs and heart. Veins carry the blood back to the heart."

3) A heart attack is a blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle.
