Answer:

A hyperbole is a figure of speech where the word choice is greatly exaggerated to emphasize the impact or meaning.

EX: I'd love you for a thousand lifetimes.

^

While obviously not, the exaggeration emphasizes my meaning.

A hyperbole in the poem could be "Till a' the seas gone dry..."

Burns emphasizes that he will still love thee, even when the seas dry up, which both acts as a metaphor and hyperbole.

Can someone make up a free verse poem for me :)
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

What they don’t understand about birthdays and what

they never tell you is that when you’re eleven, you’re also ten,

and nine, and eight, and seven, and six, and five, and four, and

three, and two, and one. And when you wake up on your

eleventh birthday you expect to feel eleven, but you don’t. You

open your eyes and everything’s just like yesterday, only it’s

today. And you don’t feel eleven at all. You feel like you’re

still ten. And you are—underneath the year that makes you

eleven.

Upon completing The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act V, write a brief evaluation of Macbeth as a typical tragic hero. Do you
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Throughout the play, Macbeth would be considered a typical tragic hero. He is initially the Thane of Glamis and a noble warrior, who valiantly serves King Duncan. Following his brave exploits in battle, Macbeth earns the title, "Thane of Cawdor," which was prophesied by the witches. Macbeth is misguided by the Three Witches and encouraged to commit regicide by his wife. The audience initially sympathizes with Macbeth because he is persuaded by his malevolent, ambitious wife to murder King Duncan. Macbeth is quickly manipulated by his wife after he initially rejects the thought of murdering King Duncan. Macbeth's immediate feelings of guilt following his crime also reveal his conscience. Macbeth then begins to hallucinate and see his friend's ghost after Banquo is assassinated. Similar to many tragic heroes, Macbeth also has a tragic flaw, in his case, unchecked ambition. In every aspect, Macbeth meets the criteria of a typical tragic hero. In my opinion, Macbeth is a noble individual with one tragic flaw. Unfortunately, he is manipulated by his wife into murdering King Duncan.
