    Exclamation Figures Of Speech

    Hi people


    Introduction

    Idioms or figures of speech are combinations of words whose meaning cannot be determined by examination of the meanings of the words that make it up. Or, to put it another way, an idiom uses a number of words to represent a single object, person or concept. Unless you recognise when an idiom is being used you can easily misunderstand the meaning of a text. Modern translations, such as the NIV, use an equivalent figures of speech in English to translate many biblical idioms. More literal versions, particularly the King James Version, translate idioms word for word. It is the reader of the literal versions who needs to be most aware of the meanings of idioms

    hi again

    ***********************
    Tropes
    Metaphor : The substitution of a word for a word whose meaning is close to the original word
    Metonymy : A noun is substituted for a noun in such a way that we substitute the cause of the thing of which we are speaking for the thing itself; this might be done in several ways: substituting the inventor for his invention, the container for the thing contained, an author for his work, the sign for the thing signified, the cause for the effect
    Synedoche : Substitution of part for whole, genus for species
    Irony : expressing a meaning directly contrary to that suggested by the words
    Metalepsis : A double metonymy in which an effect is represented by a remote cause
    Paradox : A seemingly self contradictory statement, which yet is shown to be true
    Oxymoron : A condensed paradox at the level of a phrase
    Anthimeria : The substitution of one part of speech for another; for instance, an adverb for a noun or a noun for an adverb
    Litotes : Deliberate understatement or denial of the contrary
    Hyperbole : Exaggerated or extravagant statement used to make a strong impression, but not intended to be taken literally
    **************************
    Metaplasmic Figures
    Prosthesis : Addition of letters to the beginning of a word
    Aphaersis : Omission of letters from the beginning of a word
    Epenthesis : Addition of letters to the middle of a word
    Syncope : Omission of letters from the middle of a word
    Paragoge : Addition of letters to the end of a word
    Apocope : Omission of letters from the end of a word
    Antisthecon : Substitution of a letter or sound for another within a word
    Metathesis : Transposition of a letter out of its normal order in a word

    **************************
    Figures of Omission
    Ellipsis : Omission of a word
    Zeugma : An ellipsis of a verb, in which one verb is used to govern several clauses
    Scesis Onamaton : Omission of the verb of a sentence
    Anapodoton : Omission of a clause
    Aposiopesis : Stopping a sentence in midcourse so that the statement is unfinished
    Occupatio : When the orator feigns and makes as though he would say nothing in some matter, when, notwithstanding he speaks most of all, or when he says something: in saying he will not say it
    To Be Continued.....
