Metonymy is a literary device that uses a <u>specific word</u> (especially a noun) in exchange of a term that represents an <u>idea or an objec</u>t. Metonymy is an example of the use of <u>figurative language</u>, which can enrich the meaning and literary style of a work.  

An example of <u>metonymy</u> would be:
