Bold= descriptive words
<em>Italics</em>= figurative language
Explanation:
First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.
Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.
Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.
Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.
