Answer:

Captain Andrew Jaggery, head of the Seahawk, is nothing if not a gentleman – on the outside. His dress is smart, his manner is impeccable, and he likes to take his tea in a timely fashion. For Charlotte, he symbolizes the regulated world of law and order that she knows from her father. From the outset, then, Charlotte (always a Daddy's girl) trusts the captain implicitly (3.13). Every fiber in her being tells her that she should be on his side. Charlotte writes: "It was to him I owed my allegiance – by custom – by habit – by law" (9.61).

The problem is, though, that the more Charlotte sees of Captain Jaggery's rules and order, the more she realizes that the guy is cruel, merciless, and abusive. He is, more or less, a tyrant who wields his authority with an iron fist in a velvet glove.

But challenging Captain Jaggery is no easy task. Why? Well, because he's an authority figure, and he stands for all kinds of different authority. Want to talk about them? OK, here we go:

Answer:

Answer:

A. The pen is mightier than the sword.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, metonymy, etc.

Metonymy was derived from the Greek word "metōnymía" which simply means change of name. It can be defined as a figurative language in which an object, thing, concept, or idea is referred to by the name of another that is closely related or associated with it. Thus, it involves substituting an object, thing, concept, or idea with a linked term having a close association.

A common example of metonymy is the pen is mightier than the sword.
