I need to know all the sound devices, imagery, figurative speech, etc. I don't know how to find them.

The Rhyme scheme is ABAB while for imagery, the use of descriptive phrases like "fearful color" help the reader visualise the frog.

Analogy is used to compare the frog to a cheerful tune.

<h3>What are sound devices?</h3>

Sound devices are a type of figurative language which use repeating and similar sounds to add emotional effects to a writing.

The sound devices used include: friendly frog, squeak, steep sun heats the streamline, and tearful teeth.

Imagery used include fearful color, peaches of June, and cheerful tune.

Figurative speech used include <em>compare you to a cheerful tune</em> (analogy) and<em> invading my mind</em> (personification).

In the third stanza, the use of parallelism helps the poem flow.

Therefore, sound devices, imagery, and figurative speech are used in writing to add emotional effects and meaning to writing.

In North America, I have photographed cactus plants from Mexico to Canada, and I think Arizona cacti are the most beautiful.

dsp73

Answer:

Arizona

Explanation:

I would say that North America is one word together, so "North" is not working as an adjective.

Mexico and Canada are working as nouns, not adjectives.

Arizona is working as an adjective to describe the kind of cacti the writer believes is the most beautiful.
