Answers
Answer:
Types of poetic devices are:
★Alliteration.
★Assonance.
★Imagery.
★Metaphor.
★Onomatopoeia.
★Personification.
★Refrain.
★Rhyme.
Alliteration :
In alliteration, words that begin with the same sound are placed close together. Although alliteration often involves repetition of letters, most importantly, it is a repetition of sounds.
Example:
Sally sells seashells by the seashore.
Assonance.
Assonance is the repetition of the same or similar vowel sounds within words, phrases, or sentences. The word is derived from the Latin phrase assonare, meaning to answer with the same sound.
Example:
I wish there was a way to make her state similar feelings to those of my soul.
Imagery:
Imagery is language used by poets, novelists and other writers to create images in the mind of the reader. Imagery includes figurative and metaphorical language to improve the reader’s experience through their senses.
Example:
Silence was broken by the peal of piano keys as Shannon began practicing her concerto.
Metaphor.
Metaphor is a common figure of speech that makes a comparison by directly relating one thing to another unrelated thing. Unlike similes, metaphors do not use words such as “like” or “as” to make comparisons. The writer or speaker relates the two unrelated things that are not actually the same, and the audience understands that it’s a comparison, not a literal equation. The word comes from a Latin phrase meaning “to carry across,” and a metaphor does just that—it carries a shared quality or characteristic across two distinct things.
Example:
All religions, arts, and sciences are branches of the same tree. (Albert Einstein)
Onomatopoeia.Onomatopoeia refers to words whose pronunciations imitate the sounds they describe. A dog’s bark sounds like “woof,” so “woof” is an example of onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia can be used to describe the gears of machines working, the horn of a car honking, animals croaking or barking, or any number of other sounds.
Example:Rain pitter-patters, drip-drops, and rat-a-tats on the tin roof. Creeks babble and churn. Lakes ripple. Rivers rush. Oceans crash, roar, and thunder against the shore.
Personification
Although literally, the sun cannot smile, the leaves cannot dance without legs, and the wind cannot whisper because it doesn’t have a mouth, we apply human characteristics and create these metaphors to describe a scene. When we talk about non-human things as if they were human, we personify them. Personification is a kind of metaphor in which you describe an inanimate object, abstract thing, or non-human animal in human terms. It is used to create more interesting and engaging scenes or characters.
Example:
Science-fiction novels were his constant companions.
Refrain.
The definition of a refrain is the part of a song or poem that is repeated. An example of refrain is the part "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind." in Peter Paul and Mary's 1960's folk song "Blowing in the Wind."
Rhyme.
This is the rhyming of consonants but not vowels. Examples include bell and ball, dump and damp, meter and miter, mile and mole. Dactylic - This rhymes the third syllable from the end. One example is Aristophanes and cacophonies.
