Learning Log 6

This week, I learnt about literary devices. This is not something new to me as I learnt it last year but the literary devices we learn this year are harder. Some of the devices we learnt are gustatory, kinesthetic and oxymoron. I learnt that literary devices enable the reader to better visualise what the writer is saying. For example, an author may repeat a word a few times to stress its importance. This is called repetition.

All in all, I think I'm slowly getting used to the literary devices. Its just a matter of time till we get used to using them in our daily life and that would benefit us greatly as it would be much easier for us to remember the devices for the exams.
