Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Hyperbole, Personification, and Alliteration.

Explanation:

The given quote is taken from the play "Romeo and Juliet" by William Shakespeare and said by Juliet on the banishment of Romeo.

<u>The literary device thatt has been used in this quote is hyperbole, personification, and alliteration</u>.

Hpyerbole is a literary device that is used to exaggerate a point extremely. The word 'hyperbole' is derived from Greek, which means 'excess.' So, this rhetoric device is used to make an exaggerated point.

<u>In this quote, this rhetoric device is used to exaggerate the point that the banishment of Romeo is like slaying ten thousand Tybalts, which means that Romeo's banishment was worse than the slaying of Tybalt</u>.

Alliteration is a rhetoric device in which the beginning of a word or phrase have same consonant sound. This device is used to highligh a point that the author is trying to make.

<u>In the given quote, the use of this device can be found in the consonant sound of 'that', 'banished', 'ten' and 'Tybalts.'</u>

Personification is the literary device that is used to attribute human characteristics to an inanimate objects or non-human things such as trees, clouds, animals, etc.

<u>In the given extract, personification is used by attributing the human characteristic of slaying to 'word.' 'that one word banished, hath slain slain.' Since a 'word' can not have the ability to 'slain' but it is attributing that the 'word' banished had slain ten thousand Tybalts</u>.

So, the correct answer is hyperbole, personification, and alliteration.
