Answer 2

The correct answer is Synecdoche.

• The figure of speech that has been used in the given sentence 'I see him drinking weak tea and eating stale chapati​' is Synecdoche.

• Synecdoche is a figure of speech that is frequently used in the writing such as in articles and poems.

• In poetry, it is sometimes very difficult to write the whole of something therefore by Synecdoche, we can write a part of it though it will mean the same as the whole.
• In the given sentence, the whole is food and part of it is tea and chapati.

• Hence, the correct figure of speech will be Synecdoche.
