Literary terms/english definitions
This document defines various literary terms used in analyzing writing and literature. It includes definitions for diction, denotation, connotation, literal and figurative language, simile, metaphor, personification, tone, theme, claim, evidence, analysis, juxtaposition, point of view, understatement, hyperbole, irony, mood, symbol, foreshadowing, ambiguous language, en medias res, register, characterization, thesis, split thesis, alliteration, imagery, iambic pentameter, pun, oxymoron, soliloquy, aside, and comic relief.
Discourse analysis and phonology
This document discusses various linguistic concepts related to discourse analysis and phonology, including:
1) How pronunciation of words can change in discourse, such as replacing /d/ with /b/ in "good morning" due to the influence of surrounding sounds.
2) How rhythm and stress patterns vary depending on discourse context and the speaker's intentions.
3) The difference between word stress and prominence assigned by the speaker, and factors that determine which words receive prominence.
4) How intonation is used to separate units of speech, indicate new information, and convey attitudes and meanings between speakers.
Unit 4
This document provides information on various grammar topics including pronouns and their antecedents, author's purpose, indefinite and reflexive pronouns, drawing conclusions, following and clarifying directions, writing summaries, and using who and whom correctly. Key details are presented on each topic in bullet points with definitions and examples. The document aims to inform the reader on these essential grammar concepts.
Literary devices definitions
This document defines various literary devices including metaphor, simile, personification, onomatopoeia, alliteration, mood, flashback, hyperbole, foreshadowing, dramatic irony, situational irony, and verbal irony. Metaphor and simile involve comparing things, personification gives human traits to non-human objects, onomatopoeia imitates sounds, and alliteration repeats letters. Mood, flashback, and hyperbole relate to expressing feelings, memories, and exaggeration. Foreshadowing, dramatic irony, and situational irony involve hints about future events or a character's lack of knowledge. Verbal irony means saying one thing but meaning another.
Language
The document discusses how language can evoke images and emotions through writing. It presents several theories of meaning, such as image theory where the meaning of a word is a mental image. It also discusses problematic meanings in language including vagueness, ambiguity, secondary meanings through denotation and connotation, and literary devices like metaphor and irony. Emotive language uses words with strong positive or negative connotations to elicit emotional responses from readers. Overall, the written word can have a greater influence than spoken words because it provides a visual representation that can be referenced and interpreted at the reader's own pace.
Description writing
The document provides guidance on how to write an effective description. It recommends focusing on a dominant impression, selecting specific details that support the impression, and organizing details spatially, chronologically, or by sensory impression. Vivid language such as similes, metaphors, and personification should be used to show rather than tell and put an exact picture in the reader's mind through concrete nouns, adjectives, and verbs rather than cliches. Organization is key to effective essay writing.
Descriptive writing
1. A descriptive essay must have one clear dominant impression that guides the selection of details. This impression is stated in the thesis sentence.
2. Descriptive essays can be either objective or subjective in tone and include concrete sensory details to help readers visualize what is being described.
3. Specific, consistent details that engage the five senses are important to fully involve readers and communicate the dominant impression.
Descriptive Writing Lecture
This document provides guidance on descriptive writing, focusing on the effective use of parts of speech, figurative language, and sensory details. It discusses how adjectives and adverbs can be used to describe nouns and verbs. Figurative language like metaphor, simile, and personification are also important for description. The document then outlines five things to avoid in descriptive writing: purple prose, overreliance on adverbs, cliches, formal language, and "easy outs". It emphasizes using specific, concrete details over vague language.

Descriptive paragraph
Descriptive paragraphs provide details that engage the five senses to help readers visualize what is being described. They often follow a spatial order arrangement, describing items from left to right and top to bottom to create a word picture. Signal words are used to indicate spatial relationships between objects within a descriptive paragraph. The topic sentence should name what is being described, while the controlling idea gives an overall impression, and details use adjectives to enhance the description.
Phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs are verbs combined with particles or adverbs that together form a phrase with a meaning different from the original verb. Examples of phrasal verbs include bring up, find out, give away, and give up. Phrasal verbs can be either intransitive, with no direct object, or transitive, taking a direct object and allowing passive or active constructions.

Descriptive writing 1
This document provides information about descriptive writing. Descriptive writing creates a picture of a person, place, thing, or event using details that appeal to the five senses. Good descriptive writing includes vivid sensory details organized in a clear structure and links details to feelings or thoughts. Types of descriptive writing include descriptions of people or places, remembrances, observations, and vignettes. The document also reviews descriptive writing tools like adjectives and adverbs and provides examples of descriptive writing prompts.
poetic devices
Are tools that a poet can use to create rhythm, enhance a poem's meaning, or intensify a mood or feeling. These devices help piece the poem together, much like a hammer and nails join planks of wood together. Some of these devices are used in literature as well, but for the sake of clarity, we will look at all of these devices through the lens of poetry.

Power point reading a narative text
Narrative texts tell a story by describing events, characters, or phenomena. They show rather than tell through detailed descriptions. Narratives can be fiction like novels or non-fiction like memoirs. According to Madison Smart Bell, the structure or form of a narrative is most important, as it contains the story's elements like plot, characterization, point of view, and theme. A narrative typically includes an orientation introducing what the text is about, a complication where conflicts arise between participants, and a resolution where the problems caused by the conflicts are solved or ended.
Cartoon words
Roy Lichtenstein was known for paintings featuring words from comic book speech balloons. Speech balloons are used in comics and cartoons to convey what a character is saying or thinking through words inside shapes like bubbles. This activity encourages children to create their own speech balloon painting by choosing a word, selecting a balloon type like for speaking, thinking, or screaming, and then drawing and painting the word inside the bubble on a colored background.
Body language
The document discusses body language and nonverbal communication. It explains that between 60-80% of communication is nonverbal through gestures, postures, and facial expressions. Body language is divided into two basic groups: open/closed and forward/back postures. These combine to create four basic modes of body language: responsive, reflective, combative, and fugitive. Each mode is defined by its posture and given examples of interpretations. Being aware of body language can improve communication skills in various situations like interviews, meetings, and dates.

Discussion - Week 3Elements of the Craft of WritingThe narra.docx
Discussion - Week 3
Elements of the Craft of Writing
The narrator's point of view is the reader's window into the soul of your story. Combined with the tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue, these elements of the craft of writing give your story believability and interest. How can you combine the elements of the craft with the elements of the short story and the techniques of development you learned about in Weeks 1 and 2? In this Discussion, you will understand point of view, tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue and examine how other writers use these elements of craft to improve their work.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the assigned portions of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 7 in Shaping the Story.
Review "Revelation" by Flannery O’Connor, "Mericans” by Sandra Cisneros, and "Why I Like Country Music" by James Alan McPherson in Shaping the Story.
Reflect on the voice in the assigned stories.
How would you describe the voice in each short story?
How do these voices demonstrate what the authors are saying about the main issues of each story?
Reflect on the similarities and differences in the ways that the authors use dialogue to establish character presence.
Consider the issues that each story discusses. How do these issues shape the characters and affect the light in which they are seen at the beginning and the end of the story?
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3
: 2 to 3 paragraphs comparing and contrasting different approaches to two of the following elements in two of the three stories in the Week 3 reading.. Be sure to cite at least two specific examples from your readings.
Point of View
Tone of Voice

Characterization
This document provides reminders about characterization in writing. It states that good characterization creates a clear picture of characters in the reader's mind. It also notes that characterization can make fantasy characters seem real. Additionally, it explains that indirect characterization involves showing a character through their relationships, appearance, words, actions, thoughts and feelings rather than directly stating character traits.

Antanddove
An ant was drinking from a river but got swept away by the current. A dove in a nearby tree plucked a leaf and dropped it into the river, allowing the ant to float to safety. Later, when a bird catcher tried to capture the dove, the ant stung the bird catcher's foot, causing him to flee and saving the dove. The moral is that those who help others should help each other when possible.
Interjections
Interjections are words like "hey", "ouch", and "wow" that are often standalone and don't have a grammatical relation to other words in a sentence. Interjections are followed by commas if used in a normal tone or exclamation points if emphasis is needed, and examples provided demonstrate their use in different sentences and with different punctuation.
Creating an Easy Formal Outline
This document provides instructions for creating a formal outline by folding a piece of paper in half twice to create sections for an introduction with a hook and thesis, three body paragraphs with supporting details labeled a through c, and a conclusion that restates the thesis. Creating an outline in this way provides an easy to follow map for organizing a formal paper with labeled sections to fill in with research information.
Pronouns
This document defines and provides examples of different types of pronouns, including personal pronouns like I, you, he, she; possessive pronouns like mine and yours; demonstrative pronouns like this and that; relative pronouns like who and which; reflexive pronouns like myself and yourself; interrogative pronouns like who and what; and indefinite pronouns like all and either.
Preposition ppt
Prepositions show the relationship between nouns and pronouns. They combine with nouns and pronouns to indicate relationships like location, direction, and time. There are many prepositions like "under", "across", and "before" that must be memorized. Prepositional phrases are formed with a preposition and a noun or pronoun, and function as adjectives or adverbs within a sentence. Infinitives are verb phrases that begin with "to" like "to dance" or "to swim". Unlike prepositional phrases, infinitives can serve as subjects or objects in a sentence.
Modifiers
Adjectives modify nouns and pronouns by answering questions about which, what kind, and how many. There are only three articles: a, an, and the. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs by answering questions about how, when, where, why, how often, under what circumstances, how much, and to what extent. An example is provided of an adverb modifying a verb and adjective in a sentence.
