Answer:

  • Synecdoche - They drive their keels o'er the darkling wave
  • Alliteration - Grim and greedy, he grasped
  • Kenning - The whale-path
  • Epithet - The Ruler-of-Man

Explanation:

  • The synecdoche is a figure of language characterized by the substitution of one term for another, occurring a reduction or amplification of the meaning of that term. This is because the relationship that the substituted term and the substitute term establish is unequal. Mostly, a relationship is established between the part and the whole.
  • Alliteration is defined by the repetition of consonant phonemes in a statement. This means that these sounds can be similar or equal and are usually located at the beginning or middle of the word. Alliteration produces an interesting sound effect, marking the rhythm and suggesting some sounds similar to the words that make up the text.
  • Kenning, in the medieval literature of Scandinavia, is a figure of poetic language in which idiomatic expressions are made through compositions. In its simplest form, it comprises two terms, one of which (the 'base word') is related to the second forming a meaning that neither term has individually.
  • Epithet is an adjective or a participle that intends to characterize a name. Its main purpose, therefore, is not to specify or determine the name in question, but to evidence intrinsic characteristics of the noun.

Why the voting age should not be lowered to 16
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Anyone under 18 is not mature enough to participate in voting, or elections. Kids may not have as much knowledge in voting as adults. At 18, the legal voting age, you are expected to be mature enough, and have more knowledge in elections.

Hope this helps!
