In this article, we'll highlight the main branches of the tree, or "the big five." In truth, this is only scratching the surface. There are waves of other literary devices that color our writing, including alliteration, onomatopoeia,
idioms, irony , oxymorons, puns , synecdoche, and more. As a starting point, let's have some fun with the ones you're most likely to come across in your daily readings.
