What does figurative language create? (hint: )

English
1 answer:
shtirl [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from the conventional order and meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it.

Explanation:

Example:

The violinist's hands moved faster than the wind as he played the sonnet.

"Faster than the wind" is an example of figurative language called a simile, which means it compares it to something without actually meaning it. The violinist is not actually faster than the wind, it's just an expression.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Lehna connects with her audience through thoughts common to most people. This generates identification, which allows a credibility with the character to be established.

Explanation:

As you can see in the question above, Lehna expresses feelings that make him feel inadequate and rejected by society. He feels that society judges him and does not accept him for things of the past. He feels lonely and disengaged from this world. These are feelings common to every human being. We all feel that way as if the weight of all the judgment in the world is on our shoulders, just as Lehna feels.

This makes the audience create an identification with the person and as everyone knows these feelings, the character gains credibility and his drama makes sense to the audience that accompanies him.
