Green . Like the phase green with jealously
Answer:
The figurative language used in this sentence is: oxymoron.
Explanation:
By definition, a crowd is the gathering of a large number of people. However, in the sentence we are analyzing here, the speaker says there was a "small crowd". The two words have, therefore, opposite meanings - a "small large number of people," so to speak.
This is an example of oxymoron, a type of figurative language that puts together two words with opposite meanings. In context, however, the words can be understood. Although crowds are made up of a large number of people, some crowds can have many more people than others. Thus, the idea of a small crowd is understandable.
In Act 1
Ragueneau and Le Bret discuss Cyrano's nose. They are joking if the nose is real or not, and Le Bret responds "He keeps it on, - and cleaves in two any man who dares remark on it!"
"He keeps it on" simply means it really is his nose
and "cleaves in two" he will fight anyone who makes fun or "dares remark on it."
