Answer

a simile is a figure of speech that compares two unlike things that uses like or as ... e.g. - i can fly high AS a bird

A metaphor is a statement that compares two things that are not alike. Unlike similes, metaphors DO NOT use the words “LIKE” or “AS.”

Hyperbole is an exaggeration that is created to emphasize a point or bring out a sense of humor. e.g. - i would die for my mom...

Personification is the attribution of human characteristics to non-living objects.

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information:

Nnaemeka is a young man in love who had expected his father to object to his marriage to a woman from another tribe, but he seems unaware of how deep that tradition goes and how hard a barrier that may be to break down. We also see others in his native village becoming involved in the dilemma and siding with the father. Nnaemeka and his young bride, Nene, return to Lagos where the tribes intermix much more freely than in the villages, which tend to remain more insular and only marry within their own tribe (and language).

In general, what effect does figurative language have on writing style?
Sonja [21]

Answer:

a.) it makes the style more engaging.

Explanation:

let's take a look at the following options for this question.

<em><u>d.</u></em> states that figurative language makes the style seem like an argument. figurative language is not used to make a writing style seem argumentative.

<u><em>c.</em></u> refers to making the style seem informational. information writing are meant to be literal; factual. therefore figurative language is not for informational writing.

<u><em>b.</em></u> explains that figurative language makes the sound more formal. formal writing is like writing to someone of higher status, in which figurative language is not needed.

<em>a.) it makes the style more engaging</em> is the best option out of the four. figurative language is meant to bring life to your writing, <em>it is used to engage the reader</em> in your narrative. hope this helps!

Dafna1 [17]

Hello. The full question is:

When he's speaking of his time in the camps hoping for rescue, Wiesel writes, "If they knew, we thought, surely those leaders would have moved heaven and earth to intervene." What kind of figurative language is this (metaphor, personification, hyperbole)? How does it support Wiesel's main ideas about indifference?

Answer:

metaphor

Explanation:

Wiesel uses metaphor to compare the indifference of political leaders to the lack of information about what was happening in the Nazi concentration camps. And it shows that the people who had the power to intervene in the atrocities that were happening to the Jews, did not, in fact, know how this situation was happening and that was why they were indifferent and did not present any concern or intervention.

The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes an implicit or explained relationship between two elements that have some kind of relationship.
