HOLA MATE HERE IS UR ANSWER ♥♥♥♥♥
A) Personification is a figure of speech where human qualities are given to objects or ideas.
In the arts, personification means representing a non-human thing as if it were human. Personification gives human traitsand qualities, such as emotions, desires, sensations, gestures and speech, often by way of a metaphor.
Personification is much used in visual arts. Examples in writing are "the leaves waved in the wind", "the ocean heaved a sigh" or "the Sun smiled at us". In easy language personification is just giving an example of a living being for a non-living thing. "The wind shouted". Obviously the wind cannot shout, only people can. This is what is called personification.
B) A simile is that directly compares two things. Similes are a form of that explicitly use connecting words (such as like, as, so, than, or various verbs such as resemble), though these specific words are not always necessary While similes are mainly used in forms of poetry that compare the inanimate and the living, there are also terms in which similes and are used for humorous purposes and comparison.
C) A 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 ideas.
D) Although in the English language the term onomatopoeia means "the imitation of a sound", the compound word onomatopoeia in the Greek language means "making or creating names". For words that imitate sounds, the term ὴχομιμητικό or echomimetic is used.
E) Hyperbole is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. In rhetoric, it is also sometimes known as auxesis. In poetry and oratory, it emphasizes, evokes strong feelings, and creates strong impressions.it is a over exaggeration.
