Answer:
A figure of speech is a word or phrase that possesses a separate meaning from its literal definition. It can be a metaphor or simile, designed to make a comparison. It can be the repetition of alliteration or the exaggeration of hyperbole to provide a dramatic effect.
Explanation:
Personification gives human qualities to non-living things or ideas.
Alliteration is the repetition of the beginning sounds of neighboring words.
A metaphor makes a comparison between two unlike things or ideas.
Onomatopoeia is the term for a word that sounds like what it is describing

Answer:
- Personification ------ Personification is a figure of speech where non-living objects are described to seem like people. In the arts, personification means representing a non-human thing as if it were human.
- Alliteration ------ Alliteration is a figure of speech in which the same sound repeats in a group of words
- metaphor ----- metaphor is a figure of speech that, for rhetorical effect, directly refers to one thing by mentioning another. It may provide clarity or identify hidden similarities between two different ideas. Metaphors are often compared with other types of figurative language, such as antithesis, hyperbole, metonymy and simile
- Onomatopoeia ------- Onomatopoeia is a figure of speech in which words evoke the actual sound of the thing they refer to or describe
- Anthesis -------- Antithesis, (from Greek antitheton, “opposition”), a figure of speech in which irreconcilable opposites or strongly contrasting ideas are placed in sharp juxtaposition and sustained tension, as in the saying “Art is long, and Time is fleeting
