a. understatement

The author uses understatement to make it look like Denise knew her condition was bad, and that it was very cold outside, but by sayin I might have to skip a swim in the lake today, she says that it is very cold outside by making it look like the weather is a little bad.

The following lines best exemplify which stylistic technique? But there was a world Somewhere Out there And Mrs. Long opened tha
Zina [86]

Figurative Language is the stylistic technique employed here.

Explanation:

The poem given here is good example of figurative language as there are many events that are directly or indirectly compared to one another and thus bound seamlessly together to make a beautiful image journey through the lines.

The figurative use of the word wardrobe to open a new world for the person and then their use of imagery to describe their new surroundings is one of the rime and the most clear examples here of that happening.

Proper nouns indicate a person place or thing
yan [13]

A proper noun is usually understood as a noun that is capitalized. In order to be a proper noun, like any other noun, the word must be a person, place, thing, or idea.

Proper nouns, no matter where they are in the sentence, have their first letter capitalized.

When at the beginning of a sentence, it does not matter whether or not the noun is proper: it is capitalized anyway. This is exactly why you have to learn exactly which words are proper nouns by memorization.
