5. Oxymoron-
An Oxymoron is when two words are used together in a sentence but they seem to be in contrast with each other. An oxymoron is a figure of speech that willingly uses two differing ideas. This contradiction creates a paradoxical image in the reader or listener's mind that creates a new concept or meaning for the whole.
Example-
Life is bittersweet.

Hyperbole is when you use the words to exaggerate what you mean or emphasize a point. It is used to make something seemed bigger or more important than it actually is.
Example-

Hyperbole is used when we want to reinforce the point by exaggerating it. It is frequently used in poetry and found in casual speech as well. Media uses Hyperbole to exaggerate the facts, in order to make the story impactful.
Example-

The robber ran faster than lightning.

It is the figure of speech where the word is used to describe a sound. When we explain any action by putting the sounds into language, it is known as onomatopoeia. It is generally used in fiction or in nursery rhymes, for eg- Old Macdonald had a farm eea eea ooo.
Example-
I could hear the leaves rustling and wind howling.
Bam! He hit the truck at the speed of 80 kmph.
