Abstract

This article explores four key lexical stylistic devices—metaphor, metonymy, 
irony,  and  epithet—which  are  essential  tools  for  enhancing  expressive  power  in 
English  language  and  literature.  Each  device  is  explained  with  definitions  and 
examples to help readers understand how they add emotional and imaginative depth to 
communication.
