Top 20 Figures of Speech in the English Language

[@johnc.2325]

A very interesting lesson! I'm surprised these terms are for ESL learners. I am a native, fluent English speaker. I have a B.A., but I didn't know what some of these figures of speech meant until now!

[@MATSTHEPROF]

Hi there. I liked it very much. Is there a Pdf file we could download? It would be very useful to study.

[@KazouShip]

Say that again

Thank you for your hard work. What is the difference between Oxymoran and Paradox?

[@proXcoco]

IDK

[@daufnci]

​@@proXcoco Why bother answering?

[@mubarikhussain9951]

It's the same thing

[@LuceDeSera]

Paradox is two opposing statements or situations like: this is the beginning of an end. The more you know, the more you realize you don’t know. You have to be cruel to be kind.
Oxymoron is when you combine two opposite words and put them side by side like: bittersweet or dead alive.Deafening silence. Cruel kindness.
Hope this helps 😊❤

Not when you live in a country where they'd cut the power off the whole day at the slightest drop of rain

I thought onomatopoeia examples are buzz zoom
And my watch ticks loudly is personification
Pls can someone explain
Thank you.

[@7ESLLearningEnglish]

Buzz and zoom are indeed examples of onomatopoeia.
"My watch ticks loudly" could be an example of personification, but you're not really saying the watch is doing anything intentionally. "Tick" by itself is onomatopoeia.

I don't understand what's so wrong or offensive about abortion to put it as an example though??

[@KneelsVenom]

The spirit of god transports via the sperm and the egg. Hope u get the point

[@ManyaBaranwal-k2f]

@Euphoriamd so how many abortions have you done ?

[@seajaysejey]

considered as murder in definition

[@Euphoriamd]

@@KneelsVenom ???what do you mean GOD? It's basic human rights, this is not about your religious beliefs

[@Euphoriamd]

@@ManyaBaranwal-k2f you seriously thought that was a good comeback?
