Answer 2

Answer:

An epithet is a word or phrase which describes the main quality of someone or something.

For example: 'a happy person'.

Transferred epithet is when this adjective is transferred to a different noun like 'Happy birthday'.

Examples

'The builders were working at a dizzy height.'

Heights can't literally be dizzy, they have no feelings. The transferred epithet intensifies the height. How high up would you need to be to feel dizzy?

• 'a wonderful day'
• 'wide-eyed amazement'
• 'He pointed an angry finger at me.'
• 'She looked at him through concerned eyes
