Explanation:
We use figures of speech in "figurative language" to add colour and interest, and to awaken the imagination.
Figurative language is everywhere, from classical works like Shakespeare or the Bible, to everyday speech, pop music and television commercials.
It makes the reader or listener use their imagination and understand much more than the plain words.
Figurative language is the opposite of literal language.
Literal language means exactly what it says.
Figurative language means something different to (and usually more than) what it says on the surface:
EXAMPLE-
· He ran fast. (literal)
· He ran like the wind. (figurative)
Here "like the wind" is a figure of speech (in this case, a simile).
In some respects, they are the foundation of communication.
Figures of Speech are a set of tools essential for all writers.
Conveying a complex idea can be virtually impossible without an IMAGE or analogy.
FIGURES of SPEECH serve two roles:
(A) DECORATION:
We all love to decorate our home.
What would your home be like without them?
They give beauty and variety to what we wish to show
Same way- ‘Figures of Speech’ are decorations we use for our writing. Without them our writing would be boring.
(B) CLARITY:
A complex subject can best be conveyed imaginatively and captivatingly
The purpose of learning Figures of Speech is to make you aware, as writers, of the power and degrees of choice you have when using it in English.
Commonly used FIGURES OF SPEECH:
1. SIMILE-
A Simile shows a likeness or comparison between two objects or events. A simile is usually introduced with the words- like, as, as……..so.
Examples:
I. She is as pretty as a picture.
II. The story was as dull as ditch water.
III. He is as sober as a judge.
