Pls help! What type of literary device is the phrase “She was already a tiny speck”

English
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Possibly a hyperbole! This is an exaggerated statement-the speaker doesn't literally mean that the woman transformed into a tiny speck, it merely looked as though she did with how far away she was from the storyteller.

Which of these words is an endocentric compound?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Most compounds in English are endocentric, that is, one of the elements (typically the right-hand element) is the head of the construction. Headedness is shown most clearly by hyponymy: the compound as a whole is a hyponym of its head. For example, traffic-light is a hyponym of light, but not a hyponym of traffic.

Explanation:

Therefore bittersweet would be your endocentric compound. Because something can't be bitter while being sweet.

Why is the falling rhythm of the pattern that starts with a stressed syllable, followed by two unstressed syllables, appropriate
Mama L [17]

Answer:

because of the defeat the army suffered

The British light cavalry, led by Lord Cardigan consisted of the "Light Brigade." However, due to miscommunication, the brigade was sent to a different artillery battery, which they were not well-prepared or well-suited to fight against. This resulted to the increased number of British casualties.

Thus, the poem used a falling rhythm in its pattern in order to show how the army suffered because of being defeated. Their defeat forced them to retreat at once.

So, this explains the answer.
