Answer:
personification is when you write about something not living doing something a living thing would do.
example: the wind howled.
a simile is when you compare two different things using like or as.
example: he laughed like a dolphin.
a metaphor describes an object or action in a way that isnt literal but gives you the idea.
example: laughter is the music of the soul.
an oxymoron is when you have words that contradict each other.
example: there was a deafening silence.
Explanation:
Shakespeare uses alliteration, end rhyme and onomatopoeia in his poem. Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound a the beginning of a group of words. An example of this is the first line: "Full fathom five thy father lies". The /f/ sound is repeated. He also uses end rhyme in his poem to create the rhyme scheme ABABCCDED. Lastly Shakepeare uses the sound device onomatopoeia. An onomatopoeia is word that sounds the same as it's meaning. An example of this is "Ding-Dong."
Well it really depends.
If you are describing a 12 year old girl, with brown hair and brown eyes it could go something like this:
"The young, twelve year old girl, had long brown curls that fell to her shoulders. Her chocolate brown eyes were as dark as her hair and stood out on her pale, freckled skin. She was - in short - lovely."
If you are describing... let's say... a 16 year old boy with black hair and blue eyes it could go something like this:
"The young man turned his crystal blue eyes in my direction and I looked away quickly so as not to be caught staring. "How old are you?" He asked. "Sixteen," I replied timidly, twirling my long hair around my finger. "Me too," He replied, flicking his shoulder length black hair out of his eyes."
