A. ACTIVITY Let the students recall their 5 senses and present the following sentences. Ask them what senses these sentences appeal to:
1. I laid on Labang’s massive neck and said to her. “You may scratch his forehead now.”
2. “Look Noel, yonder is our star!” Deep surprise and gladness were in her voice. Very low in the west, almost touching the

3. He must have taught her the song because she joined him, and her voice flowed into his like a gentle stream meeting a
stronger one.
There was no light in my father’s room. There was no movement. He sat in the big arm chair by the western window, and a

1. Imagery - e “mental pictures” that readers experience when reading literature
2. Diction - the choice and use of words and phrases in speech or in writing. Word choice is the most powerful element of
B. ANALYSIS style for you to understand.
3. Figures of speech - an intentional deviation from ordinary language, chosen to produce a rhetorical effect. It is a word or
phrase used in a non- literal sense for rhetorical or vivid effect

C. ABSTRACTION Teacher to start the discussion by letting the students recall figures of speech and present the following:
1. Simile is comparing two unlike things using like or as. Example: Leon’s hair is as black as charcoal.
2. Metaphor is comparing two things without using like or as. Example: The world is an apple.
3. Personification is giving life to non-living objects or things. Example: The windows protested as it opened
slowly.
4. Hyperbole is a term which uses exaggeration to add a more dramatic meaning to the sentence. Example:
Maria’s bag weighs a ton.

got robbed.
6. Alliteration is when there is repetition of sound within a phrase or sentence. Example: She sells seashells on
the seashore
7. Antithesis is applying a juxtaposition of ideas which are contrasting in a statement that is balanced. Example:
Man proposes, God disposes.
8. Assonance is the similarity in sound between vowels in the middle of neighboring words. Example: How now,
brown cow.
9. Anaphora is when a word is repeated multiple times within a phrase. Example: He had one apple, one banana
and one pear.
10. Apostrophe is a direct address either to an absent person or to a non-human entity. Example: Come on
trousers, you have to fit me.
11. Euphemism is the substitution of a mild or vague expression for a harsh or unpleasant one. Example: The
former president passed away. (died)
12. Onomatopoeia is the use of words that imitate the sounds associated with the objects or actions they refer to.
Example: The tick tock of the clock made the party stop.
13. Litotes is an understatement which applies a negative word to express the meaning of the affirmative.
Example: The dress is not too bad.
14. Metonymy is when a thing is used to represent something related to it. Example: The crown has spoken.
Meaning: The king has spoken.
15. Synecdoche is when a part of something is used to refer to the whole. Example: Many wheels have passed
already. . Meaning: Many cars have passed already.
 Oxymoron is apparently contradictory terms that are combined to produce a special effect. Example: She had bitter-
sweet memories with her boyfriend.

Activity 1

The following statements are lines from the text, “How my Brother Leon Brought Home a Wife” by Manuel E. Arguilla. Read carefully the given
lines from the text and determine whether the author used imagery, diction, figures of speech and specific experience in each line from the
text. Write IM for imagery, DI for diction, FS for figures of speech and SE for specific experience.

1. She stepped down from the carretela of Ca Celin with a quick delicate grace. She was lovely. She was tall. She looked up through my
brother with a smile and her forehead was on a level on his mouth.

2. She was fragrant like a morning when papayas are in bloom.

3. He swallowed and brought up to his mouth more cud and the sound of his insides was like a drum.

4. I laid on Labang’s massive neck and said to her. “You may scratch his forehead now.”

5. The sun was in our eyes for it was dripping into the bright sea. The sky was wide and deep and very blue above us but along the saw-
tooth rim of the Katayaghan hills to the southwest flamed huge masses of clouds.

6. She was smiling at him and I stopped tying the sinta across Labang’s neck to the opposite end of the yoke, because her teeth were very
white, her eyes were so full of laughter and there was a small dimple high up on her right cheek.

7. “Look Noel, yonder is our star!” Deep surprise and gladness were in her voice. Very low in the west, almost touching the ragged edge of
the bank was the star, the biggest and the brightest in the sky.

8. He must have taught her the song because she joined him, and her voice flowed into his like a gentle stream meeting a stronger one.

9. There was no light in my father’s room. There was no movement. He sat in the big arm chair by the western window, and a star shone
directly through it.

10. I looked at Maria and she was lovely. She was tall. Beside my brother Leon, she was tall and very still. Then I went out, and in the
darkened hall the fragrance of her was like a morning when papayas are in bloom.
