Answer:

An example of a transferred epithet is: "I had a wonderful day." The day is not in itself wonderful. The speaker had a wonderful day. The epithet "wonderful" actually describes the kind of day the speaker experienced. Some other examples of transferred epithets are "cruel bars," "sleepless night," and "suicidal sky."

Answer:

Transferred epithet is when this adjective is transferred to a different noun

For example: 'A happy person'.

Epithets are usually adjectives like 'happy' that describe a noun like 'person'.
