Title: Juxtaposition Part 2
Objective: To understand juxtaposition in action
Lecture: Sharifah Nur Anthasha

In the previous lesson, juxtaposition is the compare and contrast of two elements. The act of positioning close together (or side by side).

There are two type of analogies:
1. Logical
- It is more to rational and base on physical appearance.
- example: wire = worm, duck = ferryboat, bird = airplane,
2. Affective
- Discript emotional elements using known objects, which has similar characteristic.
- example: hardworking = ant, lazy = pig, fast = leopard, slow = snail

Ways of expressing:
1. Metaphor: "He is as hardworking as an ant"
2. Simile: "He works like an ant"
3. Oxymoron: "He works like a lazy ant."
