Abstract:

This article mainly deals with the figures of speech, which are nowadays widely used in French spoken language. The article points out that the figures of speech, found mainly in examples from literary materials, are often used during dialogues to give speech specificity and to make ordinary colloquial speech more expressive. During a discourse, it is unavoidable to use descriptive means to convey emotions and feelings to the other party. In order to develop this factor in detail, this article explains some examples of the use of metaphor, metonymy, hyperbole, comparison, personification and o

Abstract:

AbstractUse of rhetorical figures has been an element of persuasive speech at least since Gorgias of Leontini, for whom such deliberate deviations from ordinary literal language were a defining feature of what he called the ‘psychagogic art’. But must we consider figures of speech limited to an ornamental and merely stylistic function, as some ancient and still many modern theorists suggest? Not according to contemporary cognitive rhetoric, which proposes that figures of speech can play a fundamentally argumentative role in speech by evoking a level of shared meaning between speaker and listen

Poetry, a form of literature, displays varieties of language use through figures of speech, the rhetorical devices. There are two views for and against the use of such rhetorical devices in language teaching. One of the views shows its strong resentment in using such figures of speech and does not find the space of them in language teaching whereas the next speaks in favour of using them in language teaching if the texts are wisely selected. It is the judicious or creative use of figures of speech. A language teacher tries to look at them from language teaching point of view. This writing prim

Abstract Freedom of expression has accompanied humanity for centuries. As societies have developed over the decades, it has evolved and changed. In parallel, the brutalisation of language has also progressed, leading to the emergence of hate speech. Today, hate speech is a global phenomenon, significantly impacting the speech of public figures. This is due to the fact that such statements reach a wide audience, which includes both supporters and opponents of such a person. Consequently, this leads to a wide-ranging debate where individual arguments lose relevance, overshadowed by the repetitio

Specifically, two alternative proposals are discussed. The first one is in line with two-stage theories of figurative language comprehension, as it de

Abstract:

Ill seen, ill said, ill done, ill written, ill loved, ill heard. Against the old style, whose happy days are gone, Beckett's "figures" – that is, ways of being and saying – shape a language that deliberately denies all social and speech conventions. Excluded characters and figures behind the language assert themselves against all laws and rules. This article intends to show this feature while justifying the comparison between Beckett's and Kafka's works: we will also underline a difference between Kafka's "trial" – and process – of language and the reluctance of Beckett's characters.
