A figure of speech is a word or phrase that has a meaning other than the literal meaning. It can be a metaphor or simile that's designed to further explain a concept. Or it can be the repetition of alliteration or exaggeration of hyperbole to give further emphasis or effect. There are many different types of figures of speech in the English language. We will give you examples of some of the most commonly used types here.

Answer: 2- The poet repeats the word “perched” to show that the raven is threatening to the speaker, and this contributes to the mood of powerlessness in the poem.

Explanation: repetition is a literary device that consists in repeating certain words or phrases in a sentence or paragraph, in order to create an impact in the reader. In the given excerpt from "The Raven" we can see an example of the repetition of the word "perched" this shows that the raven is threatening to the speaker (it is always watching the speaker) and this contributes to the mood of powerlessness in the poem (because the speaker doesn't seem to be able to do something to stop the raven from watching him).
