英语常用修辞法22种

英语修辞法18种1. 明喻 (Simile)明喻是指为了鲜明地刻画某一事,将具有某种共同特征的两种事物加以对比。

它由本体、喻体和比喻词组成。

常用的比喻词有as、like、as if、as though、as... as、similar to、to bear a resemblance to等等。

明喻能使深奥的哲理变得浅显易懂。

1.A man without religion is like a horse without a bridle. 人无信仰,犹如马无缰绳。

e a book as a bee does flowers.读书如蜜蜂采蜜。

3.Beauty without virtue is like a rose without scent.美而无德犹如花无香味。

2. 暗喻 (Metaphor)暗喻亦称为“隐喻”,它同明喻一样,也是在两个不同类对象之间进行比喻,区别在于:明喻把本体和喻体说成是相似的,而暗喻则把两者说成是一致的;明喻中有比喻词,而暗喻中不用比喻词。

1.A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever. 好书如相伴终生的挚友。

2.A dwarf on a giant’s shoulders sees the farther of the two.侏儒站在巨人的肩上,会看得更远。

3.A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime.一日为师,终身为父。

3.类比 (Analogy)类比是一种阐述事理的修辞格,即用人们熟悉的事例说明较深的道理,或通过具体形象阐明抽象的概念。

它主要是把两种本质上不同的事物之间的共同点加以比较。

1.Judicious praise is to children what the sun is to flowers. 明智的赞扬对于孩子的作用,就像阳光对于花朵的作用一样。

英语18种重要修辞手法

英语18种重要修辞手法

18种重要修辞手法一、语义修辞1明喻(simile)俗称直喻,是依据比喻和被比喻两种不同事物的相似关系而构成的修辞格。

例如:1.The snow was like a white blanket drawn over the field.2.He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.认真观察以上各例,我们会发现它们的特点,由(as)... as, like等引导,这些引导词被称作比喻词(acknowledging word),它们是辨别明喻的最显著的特征,明喻较为直白,比喻物和被比喻物之间相似点较为明显,所以明喻是一种比较好判断的修辞手法。

2暗喻(metaphor)也称隐喻,是依据比喻和被比喻两种不同事物的相似或相关关系而构成的修辞格。

例如:1.His friend has become a thorn in his side.(他的朋友已变成眼中钉肉中刺。

)2.You are your mother’s glass.(你是你母亲的翻版。

)3.Hope is a good br eakfast, but it’s a bad supper.由以上各例可知,暗喻没有引导词,这是明喻和暗喻在形式上的最大区别。

换句话说,有为明喻,没有为暗喻。

如:He has a heart of stone. He has a heart like stone.很显然,前句是暗喻,后句是明喻。

暗喻时,比喻物和被比喻物之间的相似点较为含蓄,猛一看它们毫无关系,实际却有着某种内在联系。

谈到暗喻,有必要说说它的两种变体(variety):博喻(sustained metaphor)和延喻(extended metaphor),它们是英语比喻中的特殊类型。

(1)博喻连续使用多个喻体去比喻主体的方法就叫做博喻。

比如:There again came out the second flash, with the spring of a serpe nt and the shout of a fiend, looked green as an emerald, and the reverber ation was stunning.(爆发了第二次闪电,她像蛇一样蜿蜒,如魔鬼般嘶叫,像翠玉般碧绿,轰隆隆震耳欲聋。

例如:
1>.The birds sat upon a tree and poured forth their lily like voice。(用视觉形容听觉,鸟落在树上,由它发出的声音联想到百合花)
鸟儿落在树上,倾泻出百合花似的声音。
2>.Taste the music of Mozart。(用嗅觉形容听觉)
这也是一种矛盾修辞法,用两种不相调和的特征形容一个事物,以不协调的搭配使读者领悟句中微妙的含义。
例如:
1>.No light, but rather darkness visible。没有光亮,黑暗却清晰可见
2>.The state of this house is cheerless welcome。
例如:
1>.How was it possible to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing worth of note?
2>.Shall we allow பைடு நூலகம்hose untruths to go unanswered?
15.Antithesis 对照,对比,对偶
例如:
1>.Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper。
2>.Some books are to be tasted, others swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested。
3.Metonymy 借喻,转喻
2>.I wandered lonely as a cloud。

英语中的修辞手法1.明喻(Simile)明喻是一种最简单、最常见的修辞方法,是以两种具有共同特征的事物或现象进行对比,表明本体和喻体的关系,两者都在对比中出现,其基本格式是“A像B”,常用的比喻词有as, like, as if, as though等。

例如:●He jumped back as if he had been stung, and the blood rushedsintoshis wrinkled face.●The cheque fluttered to the floor like a bird with a broken wing. (支票跌落到地上,像一只断了翅膀的小鸟。

)●Like climbing a mountain, we struggle up three feet and fall back two.(正如爬山,我们费力爬上三英尺,又掉下去两英尺。

)I see also the dull, drilled, docile, brutish masses of the Hun soldiery blodding on like a swarm of crawling locusts.(丘吉尔在此使用了一个恰当的比喻,把德国士兵比作蝗虫,因为二者有着共同之处-传播毁灭。

)2.暗喻(Metaphor)暗喻也是一种比喻,但不用比喻词,因此被称作缩减了的明喻(a compressed simile)。

它直接把一种事物名称用在另一事物上,从而更生动、更深刻地说明事理,增强语言的表现力。

例如:●What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter? (如果没有这位电子保姆,父母该怎么办呢?)形象地说明了电视机的保姆功用。

●... while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow reluctant to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise.(……但是我们中的很多人太容易给别人批评的冷风,而不愿意给自己的同伴赞扬的阳光。

英语修辞手法1)Simile:(明喻)It is a figure of speech which makes a comparison between twounlike elements having at least one quality or characteristic in common. To make the comparison, words like as, as...as, as if and like are used to transfer the quality we associate with one to the other. For example:As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.This elephant is like a snake as anybody can see.2) Metaphor:(暗喻)It is like a simile, also makes a comparison between two unlike elements, but unlike a simile, this comparison is implied rather than stated.For example:The world is a stage.The diamond department was the heart and center of the store.3) Analogy: (类比)It is also a form of comparison, but unlike simile or metaphor which usually uses comparison on one point of resemblance, analogy draws a parallel between two unlike things that have several common qualities or points of resemblance.4) Personification: (拟人)It gives human form of feelings to animals, or life andpersonal attributes (赋予) to inanimate (无生命的) objects, or to ideas and abstractions (抽象). For example: The wind whistled through the trees.5) Hyperbole: (夸张) It is the deliberate use of overstatement or exaggeration to achieve emphasis. For instance: He almost died laughing.6) Understatement: (含蓄陈述) It is the opposite of hyperbole, or overstatement. It achieves its effect of emphasizing a fact by deliberately (故意地) understating it, impressing the listener or the reader more by what is merely implied or left unsaid than by bare statement. For instance: It is no laughing matter.7) Euphemism: (委婉语)It is the substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive(无冒犯) expression for one that may offend or suggest something unpleasant. For instance: We refer to “die” as” pass away”.8) Metonymy (借代) It is a figure of speech that has to do with the substitution of the mane of one thing for that of another. For instance, the pen (words) is mightier than the sword (forces). 借代是指两种不同事物并不相似,但又密不可分,因而常用其中一种事物名称代替另一种。

1. Several years later, word came that Napoleon himself was coming to inspect them... 几年以后,他们听说拿破仑要亲自来视察他们。

“word”在这里代替了”news, information”(消息、信息)2. Al spoke with his eyes, “yes”.艾尔用眼睛说,”是的”。

“说”应该是嘴的功能,这里实际上是用眼神表达了”说话的意思”。

9) Synecdoche (提喻) It involves the substitution of the part for the whole, or the whole for the part. For instance:They say there's bread and work for all. / She was dressed in silks.10) Pun: (双关语) It is a play on words, or rather a play on the form and meaning ofwords. For instance, a cannon-ball took off his legs, so he laid down his arms.(Here “arms” has two meanings: a person's body; weapons carried by a soldier.) / Napoleon was astonished.”Either you are mad, or I am,”he declared. “Both, sir!” cried the Swede proudly. “Both”一词一语双关,既指拿破仑和这位士兵都是疯子,又指这位战士参加过拿破仑指挥的两次战役11) Synesthesia (通感): Description of one kind of sense impression by using wordsthat normally describe another.12) Zeugma: (轭式搭配) It is a single word which is made to modify or to govern twoor more words in the same sentence, wither properly applying in sense to only one of them, or applying to them in different senses. For example: The sun shall not burn you by day, nor the moon by night. (Here moon is not strong enough to burn)13) Parallelism: (排比) In rhetoric, parallelism means giving two or more parts of thesentences a similar form so as to give the whole a definite pattern.14) Irony: (反语) It is a figure of speech that achieves emphasis by saying theopposite of what is meant, the intended meaning of the words being the opposite of their usual sense. For instance: We are lucky, what you said makes me feel really good.15) Innuendo: (暗讽) It is a mild form of irony, hinting in a rather roundabout (曲折)way at something disparaging (不一致) or uncomplimentary (不赞美) to the person or subject mentioned. For example: The weatherman said it would be worm. He must take his readings in a bathroom.16) Sarcasm/satire: (讽刺) It Sarcasm is a strong form of irony. It attacks in a tauntingand bitter manner, and its aim is to disparage, ridicule and wound the feelings of the subject attacked. For example: Laws are like cobwebs, which may catch small flies, but let wasps break through.17) Paradox: (似非而是的论点/悖论) It is a figure of speech consisting of astatement or proposition which on the face of it seems self-contradictory, absurd or contrary to established fact or practice, but which on further thinking and study may prove to be true, well-founded, and even to contain a succinctpoint. For example more haste, less speed.18) Oxymoron: (矛盾修饰) It is a compressed paradox, formed by the conjoining(结合) of two contrasting, contradictory or incongruous(不协调) terms as in bitter-sweet memories, orderly chaos(混乱) and proud humility(侮辱).19) Antithesis: (对照) It is the deliberate arrangement of contrasting words or ideas inbalanced structural forms to achieve emphasis. For example, speech is silver;silence is golden.20) Epigram: (警句) It states a simple truth pithily (有利地) and pungently (强烈地).It is usually terse and arouses interest and surprise by its deep insight into certain aspects of human behavior or feeling. For instance: Few, save the poor, feel for the poor.21) Climax: (渐进) It is derived from the Greek word for “ladder”and implies theprogression of thought at a uniform or almost uniform rate of significance or intensity, like the steps of a ladder ascending evenly. For example: I came, I saw, I conquered.22) Transferred Epithet: (转类形容词) It is a figure of speech where an epithet (anadjective or descriptive phrase) is transferred from the noun it should rightly modify(修饰) to another to which it does not really apply or belong. For instance,I spent sleepless nights on my project.24) Alliteration: (头韵) It has to do with the sound rather than the sense of words foreffect. It is a device that repeats the same sound at frequent intervals(间隔) and since the sound repeated is usually the initial consonant sound, it is also called “front rhyme”.头韵在文句中有两个以上连结在一起的词或词组,其开头的音节有同样的字母或声音,以增强语言的节奏感。
