Week 8

Date: 8^th October

This lesson we looked at literary devices examples of this:

“Allegory, Personification, Hyperbole, Irony, Antonym, Characterisation, List Technique, Idiom,  Axoim, Paragram, Sense and Non-sensical words” 1  .

The use of some of these devices is to not state or represent the actual meaning but represent the opposite, these devices are “irony” and “Antonyms” 2.

This week I learnt the different uses of words and how you can use them in different ways to convey something.  Weather you use deeper meaning to represent something or saying the opposite of what it mean. This shows that you can mean something by representing something.
