ANSWER:

1) Simile : a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g. as brave as a lion ).

2) Metaphor : a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

3) Personification : the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

4) Synecdoche : a figure of speech in which a part is made to represent the whole or vice versa, as in England lost by six wickets (meaning ‘ the English cricket team’).

5) Irony : the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.
