Good authors don’t simply state exactly what they mean. Instead they use a variety of techniques to enrich their work and make it more interesting to read. Some examples are onomatopoeia, oxymoron, and verbal irony. You will see examples of these in this exercise.

Onomatopoeia is a literary technique in which the sound of a word suggests its meaning. The word or words are used in such a way that the sound imitates or suggests a particular sound. Examples include hiss, smack, buzz, hum, cuckoo, slap, and splash.

An oxymoron combines two opposing or contradictory ideas. It’s a figure of speech in which words of opposite meaning are used together. Some examples are fiery ice, bittersweet, pleasing pain, cruel kindness, a wise fool, terribly good, icy flame, and noiseless sound.

Verbal irony is a word or phrase used to suggest the opposite of its usual meaning. It occurs when what one says or writes is the opposite of the intended meaning. For example if you said “What a nice person you are” to someone who just slammed the door in your face, you would be using verbal irony.

Read the sentence on each slide. Then click on the button that identifies the type of literary technique.
