(I wrote a list including the meanings, examples, and effects. I hope it's good enough for someone :D ) -LANGUAGE 1. Alliteration Meaning: repeated use of the the same sound. Example: "Bob bought the bunch of bundled bags." Effect: lulling, lyrical, and emotive 2. Simile Meaning: comparing two things with like/as. Example: "It hit me like a ton of bricks. / It felt as heavy as a bag of bricks." Effect: adds depth/creates an image in the reader's mind. 3. Metaphor Meaning: describing something as if it were something else, even though it isn't really. Example: "I am drowning in work." Effect: adds depth/creates an image in the reader's mind. 4. Pathetic Fallacy Meaning: the projection of human emotions onto non-human things (usually weather/environment). Example: "The friendly sun shone down on the park." Effect: creates an atmosphere, such as providing a sense of foreboding or creating a happy and light atmosphere. 5. Oxymoron Meaning: a figure of speech which doesn't appear to make sense because the words used are contradictory. Example: Living dead / alone together / awfully good Effect: adds irony, suspense, or comedy. 6. Semantic/Lexical Field Meaning: 1. words belonging to the same category. I think this is Lexical. 2. a group of words with associated meanings. I think this is Semantic. Example: 1. Blue, green, red, and brown are all colours. / 2. Keyboard, mouse, screen, and click are all words associated with a computer. Effect: keeps a certain image/concept present in the reader's mind. 7. Onomatopoeia Meaning: a sound written as a word. Example: The clang of the metal. / The boom of the grenade. Effect: adds interest, allows the reader to "hear" the writing. 8. Hyperbole Meaning: an exaggerated statement not meant to be taken literally, but used to create dramatic effect. Example: "I've told you a million times." Effect: adds exaggeration which creates dramatic effect/emphasis. 9. Personification Meaning: the projection of human characteristics/qualities/actions onto non-human things. Example: "The wind whispered to the trees." / "The stars in the sky winked at us." Effect: creates imagery/enhances the feel or atmosphere. 10. Imagery Meaning: use of the senses (auditory, olfactory, tactile) to provide imagery. Example: "The melody was serene, slow, and soft." / "The soil smelt rich, earthy, and damp." / "The warmth of the sun soaked into his skin." Effect: creates imagery that not only paints a deeper picture in the mind, but also appeals to the senses. -STRUCTURE 1. Tenses Meaning: a form of verb that expresses time. Example: past - I wrote. / present - I write/I am writing. / future - I will write. Effect: can show a character's point of view. present tense can provide urgency and tension. 2. Repetition Meaning: repeated words or phrases. Example: "I waited. And waited. And waited." / "Money comes, and money goes. Money builds, and money destroys." Effect: adds intensity and emphasis, stresses a point, (and, may I add, it can create a sort of pace in the reader's mind). 3. Anaphora Meaning: a form of repetition; repetition of the same word or group of words at the beginning of successive clauses (clauses strung together). Example: "We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender." Effect: adds intensity and emphasis, stresses a point. 4. Listing Meaning: creating a list, with or without commas and/or conjunctions. asyndetic listing is without conjunctions, syndetic listing is with them. Example: There were yellow ones, blue ones, and white ones. / There were yellow ones and blue ones and white ones. Effect: adds emphasis, builds a vivid image (I'll add that the repeated use of "and" can make it sound like there is a lot in a list due to the lack of commas). 5. Rhetorical Question Meaning: a question that is not meant to be answered. the goal is not to receive an answer, but rather to produce an effect. Example: "Did you know that rhetorical questions can be used to engage the reader?" / "Don't you think they know that?" / "Do you know what I think?" Effect: creates dramatic effect, to add emphasis, engages the reader/allows the reader to think, persuades the reader. 6. Hypophora Meaning: a rhetorical question that is immediately answered by the one who raised it. Example: "Did you know that rhetorical questions can be used to engage the reader? Well, you do now." / "Don't you think they know that? It was their idea in the first place." / "Do you know what I think? I think..." Effect: creates dramatic effect, adds emphasis, engages the reader/allows the reader to think, persuades the reader. 7. Declarative Sentence Meaning: a sentence that makes a statement. Example: "Lima is the capital of Peru." / "It is raining outside." Effect: states a fact, conveys information. 8. Circular Structure Meaning: The last line of a piece takes the reader back to the beginning of it, or a piece ends the way it began (same scene or thought, but doesn't have to be the same words). Example: - Effect: interests the reader (and adds impact when the piece as a whole is reviewed? especially if it's a shorter piece such as a poem). 9. Minor Sentences Meaning: a fragmented/incomplete sentence that still makes sense. Example: "He's gone. Dead." / "She needs help. Fast." Effect: quickens pacing of text, adds solid impact or surprise. 10. Ellipses Meaning: ... Example: "Are you sure? It is known to be a... dangerous route." / "I don't know about this..." / "Are they...?" Effect: adds a pause, adds a trail off into silence or unfinished thought/speech, creates suspense, adds uncertainty.
@@learnwithaboodwarda8080Wouldn't tone depend on your choice of words and how you choose to format them rather than on the listed techniques? I would edit the list to include Tone underneath Effect, but I don't know how I would do that for each one (because of the reason above) Maybe you should try to familiarize yourself with how different words and the use of techniques influence the effect on the reader, then you can sort of get a feel for how the tone would be conveyed. I hope I'm making sense, lol
Yes because not to be offensive but you have said absolutely saves my gcse when it should have been saved but it’s fine we all make mistakes. Anyways I hope you did well. 😊😅
Exam 1 done, thank you so much these techniques were a life saver, some of which I didn’t even get taught in class! Used as many as I could think it went well!😊
trust me revising this now is a waste of time and your unlikey to retain it (unless you have your end of years) focus of maths and english literature mainly and focus on external subjects like geography whatever u chose and PLEASE tell me you didnt choose computer science
Revising a year before is a stretch. Id recommend starting to Revise in April because youd have a whole month and additional holiday before the exams start.
thank you smm:) can you do a video on what that would create like if i used an anaphora what mood or what would it be suggesting to us in the extract? e.g like sibilance tells us its a tense atmosphere
you woman have saved many lives including mine tq sm i hope I get decent marks. But one question what does an English's LANGUAGE paper like? bcs im supposed to be having one like is it a creative writing or comprehension or story telling idk plz help if u can? I also cant find any examples.
Paper 1 is more a mix of Language & Structure, plus creative writing. Paper 2 is more comparison, a bit of language, some structure and non-fiction writing.
I just wrote a list as a new comment including effects. I'm no expert and I'm still learning but I thought I'd share it anyway in case others wanted to know about the effects... but I won't paste it here because it's a bit long lol
could you pl ma'am explain the answering of q5 ,comparison in 4ea0/01, paper 1.To obtain 22 marks is it necessary to include 12 points or more.How could we balance this at the exam.
You’re video are brilliant 🤩 but you speak 🗣 too quickly, for someone like me who’s dyslexic, it would be brilliant if you can right the meaning next to the word like for eg Oxymoron the meaning next to it so that I can screen shot because when you speak too fast it’s hard to absorb it. Thank you.
Strictly speaking it's language but if you combine semantic field with words used at the beginning, middle and end of a passage (say if you say the semantic field of X is used at the start, middle and the end - plus examples) then yes, that can be structure too.
@@Wladyslaw1440 yes oh my goodness this is literally one of the things I'm most worried about. if the extract is good then I should be able to do amazing but if it's not then I'm screwed!
@@user-cf1lj7gd1s its just basically animal imagery its another smart way of saying it and animal imagery is just basically giving an object or water or anything non animal, animalistic features for example the wind roared or the storm hissed at me or the cold bit into my skin things like that think of zoo morphism as zoo [a zoo where animals are kept. That should help u remember it
