There are two types of verbal and text anology, which are metaphor and similes.
What is metaphor?
- based on lecturer's note, I know that metaphor is a figure of speech in which 2 different things are linked by some similarity.Comparison that are obvious are not consider metaphors. Therefore, metaphors occur, when 2 different ideas are being connected in imaginative ways and agreed to be dissimilar at first.
What is similes?
- A simile is a figure of speech comparing two unlike things, often introduced with the words "like" or "as".Although similes and metaphors are both forms of comparison, similes allow the two ideas to remain distinct in spite of their similarities, while metaphors compare two things without using "like" or "as".
There are many different categories of analogies, which will prove to be very useful in the idea generation process. Our lecture only introduce 2 different categories of analogies, which are logical analogy and another one is affective analogy.
logical analogy
- Based on notes, logical analogies are analogies, which use similarities in the design, structure or function of to connect back to the subject.
affective analogy
- Affective analogies are the emotional resemblance.
What is oxymoron?
Based on wikipedia, oxymoron is a figure of speechthat combines normally contradictory terms. They appear in a range of contexts, from inadvertent errors such asextremely average, to deliberate puns like same difference, to literary oxymorons that have been carefully crafted to reveal a paradox.
