Task 1 magic square

1. 1. TASK 1 MAGIC SQUARE: HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW THESE CONCEPTS?

Prepared by: Ma. Nikki G. Orosca
2. 2. ALLITERATION Definition: Alliteration is a literary device where words are used in
quick succession and begin with letters belonging to the same sound group.
3. 3. EXAMPLES The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way. (The ‘W’ sound is
highlighted and repeated throughout the sentence.) • But a better butter makes a batter
better. A big bully beats a baby boy.
4. 4. ALLUSION Definition: • An allusion is a figure of speech whereby the author refers to
a subject matter such as a place, event, or literary work by way of a passing reference. It
is up to the reader to make a connection to the subject being mentioned.
5. 5. EXAMPLES • It’s no wonder everyone refers to Mary as another Mother Teresa in the
making; she loves to help and care after people everywhere- from the streets to her own
friends. • In the example the author uses the mention of Mother Teresa to indicate the sort
of qualities that Mary has.
6. 6. HYPERBOLE Definition: • A hyperbole is a literary device wherein the author uses
specific words and phrases that exaggerate and overemphasize the basic crux of the
statement in order to produce a grander, more noticeable effect.
7. 7. EXAMPLES • “I am so tired I cannot walk another inch” or “I’m so sleepy I might fall
asleep standing here”. • I'm drained from all the commotion
8. 8. IRONY Definition: • The use of irony in literature refers to playing around with words
such that the meaning implied by a sentence or word is actually different from the literal
meaning.
9. 9. EXAMPLES • Writing a sentence such as, “Oh! What fine luck I have!”. The sentence
on the surface conveys that the speaker is happy with their luck but actually what they
mean is that they are extremely unhappy and dissatisfied with their (bad) luck.
10. 10. METAPHOR Definition Metaphors are one of the most extensively used literary
devices. A metaphor refers to a meaning or identity ascribed to one subject by way of
another. In a metaphor, one subject is implied to be another so as to draw a comparison
between their similarities and shared traits.
11. 11. Example • “Henry was a lion on the battlefield”. This sentence suggests that Henry
fought so valiantly and bravely that he embodied all the personality traits we attribute to
the ferocious animal. This sentence implies immediately that Henry was courageous and
fearless, much like the King of the Jungle.
12. 12. Metonymy Definition: • Metonymy in literature refers to the practice of not using the
formal word for an object or subject and instead referring to it by using another word that
is intricately linked to the formal name or word. It is the practice of substituting the main
word with a word that is closely linked to it.
13. 13. Example: • When we use the name “Washington D.C” we are talking about the U.S’
political hot seat by referring to the political capital of the United States because all the
significant political institutions such as the White House, Supreme Court, the U.S.
Capitol and many more are located her. The phrase “Washington D.C.” is metonymy for
the government of the U.S. in this case.
14. 14. Onomatopoeia Definition: • The term ‘onomatopoeia’ refers to words whose very
sound is very close to the sound they are meant to depict. In other words, it refers to
sound words whose pronunciation to the actual sound they represent.
15. 15. Example: • Words such as grunt, huff, buzz and snap are words whose •
pronunciation sounds very similar to the actual sounds these words represent. In literature
such words are useful in creating a stronger mental image. For instance, sentences such as
“the whispering of the forest trees” or “the hum of a thousand bees” or “the click of the
door in the nighttime” create vivid mental images.
16. 16. Oxymoron Definition: • Oxymoron is a significant literary device as it allows the
author to use contradictory, contrasting concepts placed together in a manner that actually
ends up making sense in a strange, and slightly complex manner.
17. 17. Example: • Sometimes we cherish things of little value. • He possessed a cold fire in
his eyes.
18. 18. Paradox Definition: • A paradox in literature refers to the use of concepts or ideas that
are contradictory to one another, yet, when placed together hold significant value on
several levels.
19. 19. Example: • High walls make not a palace; full coffers make not a king.
20. 20. Personification Definition: • Personification is one of the most commonly used and
recognized literary devices. It refers to the practice of attaching human traits and
characteristics with inanimate objects, phenomena and animals.
21. 21. Examples: • “The raging winds” • “The wise owl” • “The warm and comforting fire”
22. 22. Simile Definition: • Similes are one of the most commonly used literary devices;
referring to the practice of drawing parallels or comparisons between two unrelated and
dissimilar things, people, beings, places and concepts. Similes are marked by the use of
the words ‘as’ or ‘such as’ or ‘like’.
23. 23. Example: • He is like a mouse in front of the teacher.
24. 24. Litotes • Definition: • Litotes are figures of rhetoric speech that use an understated
statement of an affirmative by using a negative description.
25. 25. • Common examples: “I'm not feeling bad,” or “he's definitely not a rocket scientist.”
The actual meanings are: “I am feeling well,” and “he is not smart.” Litotes were used
frequently in Old English Poetry and Literature, and can be found in the English,
Russian, German, Dutch and French languages.
26. 26. Example: • In everyday conversations in the 21st century, one may hear expressions
like: • “not the brightest bulb” “not a beauty” “not bad” “not unfamiliar” • These are all
examples of negative litotes that mean the opposite: “a dim bulb, or dumb,” “plain in
appearance,” “good,” and “knows very well.” Perhaps our society is not trying to be
humorous or sarcastic, but kinder?
27. 27. Analogy Definition: • An analogy is a literary device that helps to establish a
relationship based on similarities between two concepts or ideas.
28. 28. Example: • In the same way as one cannot have the rainbow without the rain, one
cannot achieve success and riches without hard work.
29. 29. Allegory Definition: • An allegory is a symbolism device where the meaning of a
greater, often abstract, concept is conveyed with the aid of a more corporeal object or
idea being used as an example. Usually a rhetoric device, an allegory suggests a meaning
via metaphoric examples.
 30. 30. Example: • Faith is like a stony uphill climb: a single stumble might send you
sprawling but belief and steadfastness will see you to the very top.
31. 31. Caesura • Definition: • This literary device involves creating a fracture of sorts within
a sentence where the two separate parts are distinguishable from one another yet
intrinsically linked to one another.
32. 32. • Mozart- oh how your music makes me soar! •
