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.

Who did Miranda tell first when she realized her apartment was left unlocked in the book
topjm [15]

Answer:

Miranda gets her first note from "you" that fall when she finds her apartment door unlocked. The note asks where the key to the apartment is (weird?) and that the writer is on his/her way to save Miranda's friend. Miranda finds a second note one day when she's counting a bag of bread rolls at Jimmy's sandwich shop. The note addresses her by her name, says she must write a letter about things that haven't happened yet, and asks her not to tell anyone about the notes. Needless to say, Miranda is freaked out by all of this.
