"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." -Abraham Lincoln, The Gettysburg Address, 1863 The quote above includes an example of:
A. simile B. personfication C. alliteration D. metaphor
I really need help with this.
@FibonacciChick666
First, thank you. Second, let's see can you define each of the choices please?
Or tell me what you think it is and why
So simile uses like or as to compare, personification gives human traits to nonhuman things, alliteration is using the same beginning of words over and over again, and metaphor is comparing without like or as.
@FibonacciChick666
good, so do you see any simile?
no
right so that can go away.
how about alliteration?
wait would it be metaphor because he said the nation is dedicated
or personification sorry
well, it is one of those two
so which and why
personification
He says the nation is concieved in liberty and dedicated. @FibonacciChick666
yep, you got it
thank you
np you did it :)
:D
