If anyone thinks they might need this: 25 Language Devices: Defined & Explained! 1. Pathetic Fallacy Is when the weather or the atmosphere describes the mood. For example, when the weather is rainy people are sad and depressed 2nd example, the dark night could symbolise something supernatural like 3AM Satan etc… 2. Personification Is when a non-human is given human qualities. For example, the tree is waving to John as drives away. 3. Simile When you are comparing two things using ‘like’ or ‘as’ For example, his facial vision looked like a falcon’s eye 4. Metaphor Is when you are comparing two things with is or are Example He is an orc 5. Extended Metaphor Pick a metaphor and explain how --- > turn in to an extended metaphor Metaphor --- > Life is a rollercoaster. Now turning into extended metaphor add explanation so, Life is a rollercoaster you don’t know when you will be at the top or at the bottom, it will all happen in an instance, at the greatest heights you will be at the greatest heights and at times it will crash, but every day is never the same, just like in a turn in a Rolle coaster is never the same. 6. Oxymoron 2 opposite words side-by-side Example, the small giant 7. Juxtaposition You explain an oxymoron. The small giant tip-toing trying to reach the top shelf, however, his small arms and puny fingers prevented him from grabbing the bar of jam. 8. Symbolism Is when objects represent a meaning. For example, moon and the star represent Islam. 2nd Example, if you get a priest you will think someone died. In Macbeth the dagger links to death. 9. Semantic field Is where words are linked to an idea. For example, PPE, 2m and Hand Sanitiser, Head of Year link to COVID. 10. Irony Is when events in the text surprises the characters. Something not expected! Mr Birling offering a 1000. Scrooge changing his nature. 11. Rhetorical Question Question does not require an answer 12. Hyperbole Is when you hype, when over-exaggerating. I am going to eat the whole restaurant. 13. Assonance Is the repetition of the vowel sound. I am too cool for school. Oooooo 14. Alliteration Words in a row begin with the same letter. 15. Sibilance Is when words in a row have the s letter or the s sound Example: the snake was slowly hissing 16. Euphemism Is when you say something in an indirect manner. He is not with us anymore. 17. Emotive Language Is when the writer makes the reader feel emotional. By making them angry. 18. Onomatopoeia Words describe the sound Boom bang skirr pop 19. Ruel of 3 / Power of 3 / Triplets Words or phrases in a row describe something (3) The table is black, hard and wide 20. Facts/ Stats Uses evidence to support their facts. 50 % of the students prefer using email rather than social media . 21. Plosive Reptation of harsh sound Words such as 'P' 'D' 'B' 22. Zoomorphism Is when you give a person animal features. Example John barked at me / John shouted at me. 23. Opinion 24. Repetition Language Device and Structure. Is when the writer uses the words repletely to create an effect. Where is being repeated and why is that important 25. Noun, Verbs, Adjectives, Adverbs Structure Flashback - when you go back in time ,3 days ago etc.. Foreshadowing - when the writer gives clue about future ‘my heart was beating fast’ Zoom in - focus on one thing for example ‘pen’ , ‘specific character ‘ Zoom out - normally used to talk about setting Dialogue - when the character speak ‘hey there !’ New character New setting Change in tone Short sentence - to build up tense Long sentence - add details and slow down the narrative Short /long sentence - may show importance in both Shift in focus - talks about object then talks about another object for example ‘pen’ to ‘table’ Cyclical structure - similar stuff happening with beginning and ending Juxtaposition Extended metaphor Pace List Pov Overall tone Chronogical order Climax Repetition Links Mood , pathetic fallacy
Hello I wanna say thank you so much I am going into year 11 in September, and am expected grade 8s and 9s, but my English teacher is an absolute nightmare and contradict himself every other lesson. Your videos have helped me so much and I greatly appreciate it!
@@ryancannon401 it’s been going phenomenally. Got a new English teacher who is a legend and I got a 9 in my last mock exams so I’m feeling so ready for tomorrow’s exam. How about you?(presuming you’re also in y11)
@@afteraltern it’s fine bro just don’t stress. I find question 5 the easiest one so get that one done first. Then I find it best to go Q1, Q2, Q3, then Q4, cause you can if the question allows use some of the ideas from Q3 in question 4 response, so it makes it a bit easier. But just give it your best shot and you’ll do great 👍😉
Guys also talk about the atmosphere or setting and what effect that has on the reader, like if it’s a tense or a calm atmosphere and why? what effect does that have on the reader (you)
@@planetloopyofficial structure is how it's written(short sentences, long sentences, basically the "physical" part of a sentence, whereas language is more about the words within the sentence and how they are used to create a certain effect on the reader
I have started to watch you videos rather than playing games because it's very useful and it's teaching me new language features that I didn't know before. So thank you very Much and may God bless you
Question 1 is 5 mins or less, you have to write down 4 pieces of implicit or explicit information based on what the question tells you what the information should be about.Some tips are to draw a line around the lines given from the question,you can use quotes,doesn’t have to be complicating just one peice of information at a time,do not make any assumptions or suggest anything because this is a sate question which will not reward any marks based on suggestions. Question 2:Before actually start question 2 you may wanna underline/highlight the end of the sentence which is what you have to talk about or explain why, underline/highlight COULD (could means that the first and second bullet point is a must and the third is a could) make sure you know at least some obvious english language techniques which are obvious including:Simile,metaphor,personification,onomatopoeia,alliteration,imagery,CONTRAST(this is most important),consonant,(forgot last one),you can use others too now after you highlight some key bits, make sure to have at least 2-3 paragraphs you have 10-12 mins so analyse a quote from the beginning,middle and end to show of your skill to the marker,use embedded quotes to gain more marks i personally use peezl so point,evidence,effect,zoom and link make sure for each paragraph you say how this makes the reader feel even though its not asked in the question,if you can do more paragraphs.Use analogy and other features to convey your message use subjective terminology throughout. Question 3:Question 3 is about (updating tomorrow) Question 4:Question 4 is about Question 5:Question 5 is about writing either a story or a descriptive peice of writing
i said in mine about how because there was only one person speaking that the dialogue was significant. because of this and ur vid on question 4 i managed to get 18/20 so thanks so much!
