Figure of speech.pptx
 Toby was lost. He is already crying. He must have
wandered off fromhis family during their morning hike
because around noon he realizedthat he was all alone in
the middle of the woods. He was definitelyanxious to
find his family before evening. The thought of spending
anight in the woods alone was a scary one.
Heaving a sigh, Tobywalked on.
 Toby was totally lost, as any needle in a stack of hay. He already crieda
bucket of tears finding his way home. He must have wandered off from
his family during their morning hike because around noon he
realized that he was alone in the middle of the wide whispering
woods.Thonk! Thunk! went his feet on the soft pine needles that covered
the ground like a soft brown blanket. Birds twittered and tweeted from
thesky-scraping branches of trees, but there was no sound of his
family.Mom! Dad!, he screamed. He was as anxious as a fish out of
water tofind his family before evening. The thought of spending a night
in thewoods alone was one that made his heart dance a fearful frenzied
jigin his chest. Heaving a sigh, Toby tiredly trudged on.
Simile
The most commonly used figure of speech, it directly
compares one object to another, using words 'as', 'as
though', 'as if', 'as '.. as' and 'like
E.g. Eyes as blue as the sky and deep like the ocean
Metaphor
 It is similar to simile but uses indirect comparison. It
compares two things by saying one thing is another
thing. It does not use the words like or as.
 E.g. He was a lion in the battle field.
Personification
 Personification simply means making inanimate things
behave in a very human like way.
 E.g. The wind whispers secrets in my ears
Hyperbole
 It is another very commonly used figure of speech, which
simply translated means exaggeration.
 E.g. A thousand times I begged his pardon
Synecdoche
 It uses either the part of an object to describe the whole or
vice versa.
 E.g. The face that launched a thousand ships
Apostrophe
 It is a diversion of discourse from the topic at hand to
addressing some person or thing, either present or
absent.
 E.g. O, Rizal! Rise and save the youth
