To Kill a Mockingbird Figurative Language ppt
This document discusses different types of figurative language that can be used in writing to make it more descriptive and engaging for readers. It defines figurative language as using comparisons, repetitions, exaggerations, and imitations to create images or descriptions. Examples of specific figurative language techniques provided include alliteration, onomatopoeia, imagery, simile, metaphor, hyperbole, and personification. The document suggests that using creative language in writing makes it more exciting, fun, and interesting for readers.
Figurative language definitions and examples
1. The document defines and provides examples of various types of figurative language such as metaphor, simile, irony, hyperbole, imagery, onomatopoeia, personification, and allusion.
2. Examples are drawn from various novels and used to illustrate the different figurative language devices.

Figurative Language Michael Tatum
This document defines and provides examples of various types of figurative language, including alliteration, metaphor, simile, personification, hyperbole, idioms, onomatopoeia, and oxymoron. Alliteration involves repeating the same letter in words. A metaphor directly compares two unlike things. A simile compares things using words like "like" or "as." Personification gives human traits to non-human things. Hyperbole exaggerates to emphasize a point. Idioms have meanings different from their literal words. Onomatopoeia uses words that imitate sounds.
Context clues
You're welcome! I'm glad I could provide an explanation of context clues to help with understanding unfamiliar words. Learning vocabulary through context is an important reading strategy.
Figures of speech based on other relations
The document discusses several figures of speech including metonymy, synecdoche, allusion, and hyperbole. Metonymy is when one object represents another associated object, like "pen" representing written work. Synecdoche is when a part represents the whole or vice versa, like using "head" to represent a person. Allusion is a reference to history, literature or religion. Hyperbole is an exaggeration for effect, like saying something weighs "a ton."

The Purpose of Figurative Language
Figurative language uses words or expressions to describe something by comparing it to something else rather than the literal meaning. It allows people to express abstract ideas and communicate emotions through techniques like humor, metaphors, and similes. Understanding figurative language helps interpret abstract concepts and appreciate humor, while its use in marketing helps create memorable messages that link products to certain images or cultural ideas.
Idioms
The document discusses idioms, which are expressions with meanings different from the literal meanings of the individual words. Idioms add richness, color, and nuance to language. They can precisely convey subtle shades of meaning using fewer words. Idioms vary in transparency, with some meanings directly derived from the words and others more obscure. Idioms are deeply connected to culture and understanding them fully requires cultural knowledge. Misunderstanding idioms can lead to humorous confusion.
Figures of speech
This document discusses and provides examples of various figures of speech used in both literal and figurative language. It defines 16 common figures of speech including simile, metaphor, personification, metonymy, synecdoche, apostrophe, hyperbole, euphemism, irony, antithesis, onomatopoeia, litotes, paradox, oxymoron, alliteration, and assonance. It then provides examples of each figure of speech and asks the reader to identify which is being used in various sentences.
Word Builders and Word Association
The document discusses various types of word relationships and vocabulary concepts. It defines terms like collocations, clines, clusters, configuration, creativity, context, clipping, and relationships between words through similarity, contrast, cause and effect, part to whole, classification, predication, derivation, sound, modification, completion, and association. Examples are provided to illustrate each concept. The purpose is to analyze different ways words can be related or grouped together through meaning, sound, structure, or association.
Context Clues
The document discusses how context clues can help readers understand unfamiliar words. It defines context as the ideas surrounding a word or situation. Readers can look at context clues like definitions, examples, and related words to infer the meaning of an unknown word. The document provides examples of using context clues to determine the meanings of words like "profusely", "elaborate", and "prehensile". It emphasizes that context clues are important for understanding vocabulary on tests.

A simulation study of fms tool
This document discusses different tool allocation procedures for flexible manufacturing systems (FMS). It analyzes three heuristic procedures: tool and part batching, tool sharing, and flexible tooling. Tool and part batching allocates all tools needed for a batch of parts, ignoring tool sharing. Tool sharing allocates each tool type only once. Flexible tooling allows tool sharing and removal during production. A simulation study compares the procedures' effects on performance measures like tardiness and flow time. The study finds flexible tooling performs best, as it most utilizes limited tool magazine capacity, though it requires frequent tool changes. Tool sharing can also achieve high utilization while requiring fewer changes.

Friction and wear
Tribochemical polishing is a technique that utilizes corrosive wear to polish surfaces. It involves chemically reacting the surface material with a corrosive medium like water or chemical reagent under sliding contact. The friction stimulates preferential dissolution of material at asperity peaks, making the surface very smooth after initial wear. It is effective when friction generates tribocorrosion products, mechanical stresses are low to avoid damage, and the corrosive medium is not too aggressive. Tribochemical polishing has been used to create smooth surfaces on materials like silicon nitride, silicon, and silicon carbide.
World war 1 notes
World War 1 began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. It involved many of the world's leading powers who were divided into two opposing alliances - the Allies and the Central Powers. The immediate cause of the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by Serbian nationalists. This triggered a series of events that led major European powers to declare war on each other in support of either the Allies or Central Powers. The United States initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies after German submarine warfare threatened American merchant shipping and the Zimmermann Telegram proposed a German alliance with Mexico against the US. American involvement helped tip the balance in favor of the Allies,
