Figure of Speech
Figure of Speech is a choice of certain words according
to the intent of the writer or speaker in order to obtain
beautiful aspects. There are three figure of speech that
often used by speakers :
1. Simile
2. Hyperbole
3. Personification
Simile
A simile is a figure of speech comparing two
unlike things, often introduced with the word “like”
or “as”.
Eg : - He swims like a fish.
- She walks as gracefully and elegantly as a cat.
Hyperbole
Hyperbole is an exaggerated or extreme
statement used to make an emphatic point.
Eg : - I had to wait in the station for ten days an
eternity.
- I was so hungry, I could eat a horse!
Personification
Personification is a figure of speech in which a thing, an
idea or an animal is given human attributes. The non-human
objects are portrayed in such a way that we feel they have
the ability to act like human beings.
Eg : - the stars danced playfully in the moonlit sky.
- she did not realize that her last chance was walking
out the door.
