Learning Log 6

In secondary one, we learnt some literary devices for literature last year. This year, we will learn more literary devices. The literary devices we will learn is harder than last year. For example, things like "rhetorical question" and "hyperbole" are something that i have not heard of before. For the end of year examination, we will be tested on literary devices. This means that we would have to memorise them.

There will be a section in the end of year paper where there is an unseen poem and there is a lot of literary devices and we would have to identify them and explain what the writer is trying to say by using the literary device.

An example of a literary device is repetition. It means using a word or phrase multiple times, in order to give emphasis and show strong feelings. An example of a repetition is "Go! Go! Go!".
