Need help with 2 important questions please!!?? Match each element of figurative language with its example: Symbol Metaphor Similie Hyperbole Understatement Allusion Irony Personification Synecdoche Metonymy
Then the examples are: A. The woods are lovely, dark and deep./But I have promises to keep B.The fog comes/on little cat feet C.Water, water, everywhere,/Nor any (but not a) drop to drink. D.One of these days these boots/are gonna walk all over you. E.Night falls like a wet sponge F.The sky is low, the clouds are mean,/A travelling flake of snow/Across a barn or through a rut/Debates if it will go. G.How now, Mr. Shakespeare, should a poet say what poetry should not express H.I gazed on the forest and burned/out the sahara desert,/with a packet of goat's meat/and a change of clothes /I crossed it in two hours I.I think I know enough of hate/ To say that for destruction ice/Is also great/And would suffice. J.And all the lands belong to the crown.
I think C is metaphor B is simile A is understatement G is irony I is personification F is Metonymy
