Comma What?

My father had left our house in the midst of a fight between Lindsey, and my mother. My mother was trying to get Lindsey to go with her to the Y to swim. Without thinking, Lindsey had blared, "I'd rather die!" at the top of her lungs. My father watched as my mother froze, then burst fleeing to their bedroom to wail behind the door. He quietly tucked his notebook in his jacket pocket, took the car keys off the hook by the back door, and snuck out.

1. Satire- a literary work holding up human vices and follies to ridicule or scorn

2. Irony- a pretense of ignorance and wilingness to learn from another assumed in order to make the others false.

3. Analogy- inference that if two or more things agree with one another in some respects they will probably agree in others

4. Foreshadowing- to represent, indicate, or typify

Figurative Language

Figurative- departing from a literal use of words; metaphorical

Figure of speech- a word or phase used in a non literal sense to add rhetorical force to a spoken or written passage.
Imagery- visually descriptive or figurative language.
Trope- a figurative or metaphorical use of a word or expression.

I think that there kind of the same because they are a form of language that include exaggeration into what your saying.

Story Spinners: Option 1

As the old man approached my friend and me i got a little nervous, because i have never seen him around here before. My friend could see that i was scared, she looked at me and said he's just a homeless guy can you not tell by him being barefoot. I said oh, the old man said do you girls have any spare change on you i really want a sandwich from the deli there. My friend looked at me and said should I and I said sure why not, so we gave him four dollars just so he will leave us alone. So we got on our bicycles and started to ride home.

It was getting pretty dark and we still had at least ten more minutes before we got home. We was getting a little nervous because all the people walking around and staring as we ride by. My friend Stacy decided to stop for a quick sip of water when we seen a flashlight in the distance. It looked like a police car so we hurried up and got back on the bikes and started heading home again. For some odd reason Stacy just kept on looking back like something was after her so i finally just had to ask, Stacy what's the matter with you?

She just looked as if she had seen a ghost, so then she she had me a little scared, and she said i really don't want to cross this bridge. I said why not, its perfectly safe, and its the way we always take and she said yeah but not a night. I started to wonder what she was talking about, so she said that a couple of kids was playing on it at night then all of a sudden they just vanished she said she seen it with her own eyes. She said something have to have happen on this bridge for me to be seeing ghost children. Just then i could see she was getting a little gibberish. So i said come on i will hold your hand she said ok. So we went across the bridge safe and sound.
