This second section on Figures of Speech are departure from the ordinary form of expression, or the ordinary course of ideas in order to produce a greater effect.
PUN:
A Pun consists in the use of a word in such a way that it is capable of more than one application, the object being to introduce a ludicrous effect.
Examples:
• Is life worth living? It depends upon the liver.
In this sentence, the word ‘liver’ has been used in double meaning- the physical organ LIVER and the person who lives.
• An ambassador is an honest man who lies aboard for the good of his country.
In this sentence, the word ‘lies’ has been used in double meaning- being and making false statement.
These Figures-of-Speech are widely used by us in our communications.
