Across
- repetition of a vowel e.g. cools pools, the cat sat on the mat.
- a reference to another story or text, either directly or through implication E.g. The Simpsons alludes to classical and Biblical stories often. It enriches writing and adds depth to meaning.
- the repetition of a word in a sentence in which a different meaning is applied each time
- In rhetoric, antimetabole is the repetition of words in successive clauses, but in transposed grammatical order (e.g., "I know what I like, and I like what I know"). It is similar to chiasmus although chiasmus does not use repetition of the same words or phrases.
- literally means “against the time,” including the inclusion of a person, place or thing which did not exist in the time in which the story is set
- phrase of the same word or phrase at the end of successive clauses
- when you don’t finish a sentence. Often used as innuendo and threats. We used ellipsis to signify that we’ve left words out.
- when animals or gods/goddesses are given human characteristics
- one word irony, established by context e.g. it was 115 degrees in the shade
- a narrative, all the way though, you can see another story or interpretation, other than the one explicitly told e.g. you could easily apply the story to something other than the subject of the text. Often to be didactic. Can include fables, parables and George Orwell’s Animal Farm. It makes subjects or topics easier to comprehend.
- describing word
- a short and interesting narrative of an event, usually having happened to the person telling the story
- placing good point next to fault e.g. he always forgets my birthday, but buys me presents all year around
- expressed doubt e.g. I’m not sure

- referring to the mood, character and quality or atmosphere of a place or milieu. It engages the reader, adding authenticity to the plot.
Down

- dealing with ideas rather than things
- leaving the last syllable or letter from the end of a word e.g. cinema instead of cinematography
- repetition of the same word(s) at the beginning of successive phrases e.g to think on death it is a misery, to think on life, to think verily
- the mood, tone or feeling created by particular place or scene, part of ambience. It is a function of setting.
- referencing someone of integrity to augment the authenticity of an individual’s composition
- ideas and attitudes taken for granted
- taking over or possessing something for personal use e.g. when we have to write a story and have no ideas.
- usually identified as the opponent, typical ‘bad guy’ can be seen as the foil or anti-hero
- repeating a word or expression while adding more detail to it
- repetition of a consonant sound with close connection. It appeals to our sense of sound. The effect is rhythmic and may be comic.
- the reversal of normal word order e.g. to marker she went
- comparison demonstrating the similarities between two things, people, or situations. It makes it easier to understand concepts.
- the reply to the question in hypophora
- when the climax is not what is expected, disappointed and unsatisfactory
- the opposite o contrast, involves balancing one point of view against its opposite, typically used to demonstrate the difference between things
- the position of the composer. How she/he feels about the subject matter, according to a reading of the text.
- rhetorical words spoken to an imaginary person, object or idea
- there is more than one possible meaning. Can be used in dialogue to show character is uneducated, or to confused other characters or the reader or to create humor; it can also be used deliberately to stimulate thought about issues that are not cut-and-dried.
- a pithy, concise saying that pays homage to a general truth. We ponder their meaning.
