What are Allusions and Hyperboles if you want to give an example you can.

English
1 answer:
Angelina_Jolie [31]3 years ago
7 0

An allusion is basically a way to indirectly say something, like "Chocolate was Sarah's Achilles Heel." is allusion, because the phrase "Achilles Heel" means weakness in short, and so its saying that chocolate is Sarah's weakness.

A hyperbole is an exaggeration, like if I said "I am so hungry I could eat a horse!" Obviously I'm not going to actually eat a horse, but its exaggerating how hungry I am

Do u believe that mediums have the ability to speak to those who have passed on ?
Nezavi [6.7K]
To a certain extent. I don't believe every person who claims to be a medium is telling the truth. I also don't believe the ones who can actually talk to those who have passed on can talk to anybody who has passed on. It would be hard to since some spirits are more self reserved or they wouldn't directly go and reach out to a medium.

What are some meaningful connections you made while reading the book "the fault in our stars"?
Damm [24]
A: The book “the fault in our stars” made me look introspectively, and connect the character’s lives to my own. The character’s struggles with mortality and living life to the fullest made me reflect on my life and wonder if I am truly appreciating it and experiencing all life has to offer. I also made the connection between the author’s inability to answer Hazel’s questions about the book, and how there were no answers for the problems in Hazel’s life. She was frustrated that there was seemingly no reasoning behind the author’s writing, just like there was no reason she had cancer, or that she was in this situation. Her anger towards the author symbolized a deeper anger that she would never truly “have answers” and that her life would never truly be fulfilled because she was going to die at such a young age.

I didn’t exactly know if you meant meaningful connections within the story or meaningful connections to your person life but I hope this helped!
