What type are types of rhetorical devices
Elza [17]

Answer:

<em>Alliteration</em> -  Refers to the recurrence of initial consonant sounds. "Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers" is a common example of this device.

<em>Allusion</em> - A reference to an event, place, or person. For example, you might say, "I can't get changed that quickly, I'm not Superman!" Referring to something well known allows the writer to make a point without elaborating in great detail.

<em>Amplification</em> - Repeats a word or expression for emphasis, often using additional adjectives to clarify the meaning. "Love, real love, takes time" is an example of amplification because the author is using the phrase "real love" to distinguish his feelings from love that is merely infatuation.

<em>Analogy</em> - Explains one thing in terms of another to highlight the ways in which they are alike. "He's as flaky as a snowstorm" would be one example of an analogy. Analogies that are very well known are sometimes called idioms or figures of speech.

<em>Hyperbole</em> -  Refers to an exaggeration. Saying "I have done this a thousand times" to indicate that you're very familiar with a task is an example of hyperbole because it is unlikely you've really performed the task a thousand times.Onomatopoeia -  Refers to words that imitate the sound they describe, such as "plunk," "whiz," or "pop." This type of figurative language is often used in poetry because it conveys specific images to the reader based on universal experiences. We are all familiar with the "squeal" of tires as a vehicle stops abruptly or the "jingle" of car keys in your pocket.

<em>Metaphor</em> - A type of implied comparison that compares two things by stating one is the other. "The eyes are the windows of the soul" means you "see" someone's emotional state by looking into their expressive eyes-eyes are not literally windows.

<em>Oxymoron</em> - Creates a two-word paradox-such as "near miss" or "seriously funny." An oxymoron is sometimes called a contradiction in terms and is most often used for dramatic effect.

<em>Parallelism </em>- Uses words or phrases with a similar structure. "Like father, like son" is an example of a popular phrase demonstrating parallelism. This technique creates symmetry and balance in your writing.

<em>Simile</em> -  Compares one object to another. "He smokes like a chimney" is one example. Similes are often confused with metaphors, but the main difference is that a simile uses "like" or "as" to make a comparison and a metaphor simply states the comparison.

There are other types of rhetorical devices as well. However, I only listed the ones I most commonly find in writing in general. Hope this helps!

If the word is a two-syllable word ending in a short vowel + consonant pattern, double the final consonant if the second syllabl
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

occurrence

Explanation:

So, first we need to identify the suffix for each of the words given.

Then, when we subtract that suffix, we identify all the two-syllable words that end with short vowel + consonant pattern.

And then, finally, we identify the word whose last consonant doubled upon adding the suffix.

Having this in mind, the only word that meets these conditions is occurrence.

When we subtract the suffix -ence, we are left with occurr. Since the verb is occur, we see that the last consonant r doubled when the suffix was added.

This is also the case with other suffixes, as in occurred, occurring etc.
