Allegory In an allegory, the writer uses one thing to stand in for another. In other words, what
seems like a simple tale has a much deeper, hidden meaning. Allegories are often
used for political or moral commentary.
Example: George Orwell's Animal Farm
Analogy An analogy shows how two seemingly dissimilar things are actually alike, to help
illustrate a larger point. It's similar to a metaphor or simile, but usually more complex.
Writers often use an analogy to help a reader understand a difficult topic by relating
it to something they already know.
Example: Perhaps the easiest analogy for students to understand is Forrest Gump's
famous statement that "Life is like a box of chocolates.
Aside When a character shares their thoughts directly with the audience, that's known as an
"aside." (This is sometimes known as "breaking the fourth wall" since the character is
acknowledging that the audience exists.)
Dialect word usage, syntax, and grammar of a specific group of people
Diction diction refers to the way they pronounce words
Double Entendre "double meaning," and it describes a word or phrase that has just that—more than
one meaning. These can often be a little risqué or off-color.
Dramatic Irony In dramatic irony, the audience is aware of something a character is not. This gives
very different meaning to a character's words or actions.
