Authors Note: In class we have been working on semantic devices. Below, you will find some examples of semantic devices. My friends and I have worked together to come up with some examples! Enjoy!
Metaphor- The glowing star in the sky was a flashlight.
Simile- The people in the crowd were as loud as a blow-horn
Personification- The candle flame danced in the dark.
Hyperbole- I was so excited that I jumped 100 feet.
Puns- Becca beamed from ear to ear when doing gymnastics on the beam
Oxymoron- The couple was found alone together.
Irony- I had such a blast at the mall- who wouldn't want to be robbed?
Alliteration- People at the park, played on the play set.
