چکیده:
Figures of speech, meaning the use of words and phrases in a non-literal sense, are among the categories found in the language and literature of all nations. However, not all ways of using words and speech that are considered figures of speech in one language and literature are necessarily recognized as such in another, and in some cases, there are similarities and differences among known figures of speech. In German language and literature, 10 types of figures of speech are distinguished: metaphor, metonymy [qualitative], synecdoche, quantitative metonymy, antonomasia, specific and general antonomasia, irony, hyperbole, litotes, emphasis [on hidden meaning]; while in Persian language and literature, 2 to 4 figures of speech are mentioned: simile, metaphor, metonymy, and allusion. This article examines figures of speech in German and Persian language and literature, which in fact also constitutes an examination of figures of speech in Western and Eastern languages and literatures.
