Question

Which figure of speech is this

Answer 1

Answer:

Synecdoche

Explanation:

Faces represent the whole

Answer 2

The figure of speech here is synecdoche.

• Synecdoche is a figure of speech in which a part of something replaces the whole of it, or in other words, a part is used to represent the whole thing.

• In this case, the word 'face' is used to represent people. Face is just a part of a body but can be used to represent a person.

Other examples are:

1. Head- used to count people or animals.

2. Sails- can be used to represent a ship.

3. Bread- can represent food or money.
