Tropes
Metaphor :
The substitution of a word for a word whose meaning is close to the original word
Metonymy :
A noun is substituted for a noun in such a way that we substitute the cause of the thing of which we are speaking for the thing itself; this might be done in several ways: substituting the inventor for his invention, the container for the thing contained, an author for his work,
the sign for the thing signified, the cause for the effect
Synedoche :
Substitution of part for whole, genus for species
Irony :
expressing a meaning directly contrary to that suggested by the words
Metalepsis :
A double metonymy in which an effect is represented by a remote cause
Paradox :
A seemingly self contradictory statement, which yet is shown to be true
Oxymoron :
A condensed paradox at the level of a phrase
Anthimeria :
The substitution of one part of speech for another; for instance, an adverb for a noun or
a noun for an adverb
Litotes :
Deliberate understatement or denial of the contrary
Hyperbole :
Exaggerated or extravagant statement used to make a strong impression, but not intended to be taken literally
