As you’re strolling down the busy sidewalk, a melodic tune gently flows into your ears. Envisioning music notes floating through the autumn air, you aimlessly follow the brilliant yet calm sound of an arpeggio. To know exactly where these tunes are coming from, you slowly open your heavy eyes. A slender man with long fingers and a quirky side smile, the musician, is gingerly caressing a cherry-wood acoustic guitar, playing her ever so elegantly. Enamored by the melody, you stand there, watching his hands strum and pull the guitar’s steel strings. Cautiously, you take one step closer to him in order to get a better view of his hand positionings. Although the quick and swift movements of the musician’s hands appear difficult, they’re…show more content… To properly tune your guitar, it’s helpful to have a guitar tuner, which you can obtain at your local instrument store. However, since most people nowadays have smartphones, you can use an app- such as GuitarTuna. The first time I tuned my guitar was by ear, which was a bad idea for someone who didn’t even know what the strings were supposed to sound like. I ended up tightening the string too much, and then- POP!- there went my strings! Now, most of the time, you’ll have to tune your guitar for standard tuning, which is EADGBe. Some songs will require a different tuned key; however, most use standard. To tune, you pluck the string. If it’s too flat, tighten the string by turning the peg towards you. If it’s too sharp, you loosen the string by turning the peg away from you. Unfortunately, sometimes your strings may break if you tighten them too much, so please be careful. Following your tuning session, you need to learn the strings themselves along with frets. The strings count from top to bottom: 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Frets start at the head of the guitar and move down from 1, 2, 3, etc. This information will assist you in finding your fingering positions

We can say the writer uses language to describe the garden in the following manner:
- The writer's wordchoice conveys a sense of mess and disorganization.
- Words such as "overgrown mess," "muddle of trees and shrubs," "gnarled growth," and "mass of nettles and brambles" help readers visualize the garden that has not been taken care of.
- The writer's wordchoice and use of figurative language also convey eeriness.
- Some of the figurative language used are imagery (language that appeals to the senses), personification (human-like behaviors or qualities attributed to inanimate objects), and metaphors or similes (comparison).
- For example, "its knuckles in the earth like a gigantic malformedhand" is a simile that compares the tree to a scary looking hand.
- "The trunk of the tree was snarled with the tangled ivy . . ., choking it" uses imagery and personification to help readers visualize the tree and the ivy that wraps it.
Figurative language consists in using words with meanings that go beyond their literal, original meaning.
Examples of figurative language are:<u> metaphor, simile, hyperbole, personification, imagery, onomatopoeia,</u> etc.
In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the writer uses metaphor, simile, personification, and imagery.
Metaphor and simile are both a type of comparison. The difference between them is that the simile needs the help of words such as "like" or "as", while the metaphor does not.
Personification happens when we give an objective a trait or behavior that belongs to humans.
Imagery happens when we choose words that appeal to the senses (sigh, hearing, smell, touch, and taste) to help readers visualize and feel what it is that we are describing.
