How Does Roald Dahl Use Figurative Language
Roald Dahl used figurative language and dialogue to describe his characters and the setting. The dialogue stood out for me when the passenger yelled “ One hundred and five!....A hundred and ten!...A hundred and fifteen! Go on! Don't slack off’! Figurative language was used when the passenger whispered ‘Ee looks as mean as the devil’! And he also used it when the driver thought we sat their like quilty school boys, waiting for him to arrive. The purpose Roald Dahl used these language features was because it described things made them interesting, and so you could imagine situations. Sherrly Clark also used figurative language and dialogue to describe her characters and the setting. An example of her effective use of dialogue was
‘Not yet’ I
‘Not yet’ I
