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

An example of metonymy would be:

I have devoted my soul to you. The word soul, not only representing the original concept but the act of fully committing to someone.

Which element of a text best helps the reader determine the central idea

pogonyaev

Answer:

Minor details, the characters, and the setting help the reader determine the central idea of the text. Minor details are little things you notice that may not seem important, but could be foreshadows. The characters are the people in the book. Based off of their personalities, the reader will sometimes be able to determine the central idea. Last but not least, the setting. The setting is the environment the story is mostly in(e.g stormy night, sunset, foggy town).
