Question

What is the difference between Allusion, Metonymy and Synecdoche? Explain by giving example.

Answer 1

Answer:

The terms metonymy and synecdoche refer to two similar figures of speech used as rhetorical devices. ... 'Synecdoche' is when a part of something is used to refer to the whole. 'Metonymy' is when something is used to represent something related to it.

Explanation:

example of metonymy----The pen is mightier than the sword," from Edward Bulwer Lytton's play Richelieu.

example of synecdoche----If you said "check out my new wheels," "wheels" is an example of synecdoche, used to refer to a "car." A part of a car, in this example, represents the whole of the car.
