Figure of speech
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
"Figures of speech" redirects here. For the hip hop group, see Figures of Speech.
Whitehall is a road in the City of Westminster, London used synecdochically to refer to the UK civil service, as many government departments are nearby.
A figure of speech or rhetorical figure[1] is figurative language in the form of a single word or phrase. It can be a special repetition, arrangement or omission of words with literal meaning, or a phrase with a specialized meaning not based on the literal meaning of the words.[dubious – discuss] Figures of speech often provide emphasis, freshness of expression, or clarity. However, clarity may also suffer from their use, as any figure of speech introduces an ambiguity between literal and figurative interpretation.[dubious – discuss]

Four rhetorical operations[edit]
Main article: Rhetorical operations
Classical rhetoricians classified figures of speech into four categories or quadripartita ratio:[2]
addition (adiectio), also called repetition/expansion/superabundance
omission (detractio), also called subtraction/abridgement/lack
transposition (transmutatio), also called transferring
permutation (immutatio), also called switching/interchange/substitution/transmutation
These categories are often still used. The earliest known text listing them, though not explicitly as a system, is the Rhetorica ad Herennium, of unknown authorship, where they are called πλεονασμός (addition), ἔνδεια (omission), μετάθεσις (transposition) and ἐναλλαγή (permutation).[3] Quintillian then mentioned them in Institutio Oratoria.[4] Philo of Alexandria also listed them as addition (πρόσθεσις), subtraction (ἀφαίρεσις), transposition (μετάθεσις), and transmutation (ἀλλοίωσις).[5]
Examples[edit]
Figures of speech come in many varieties. The aim is to use the language inventively to accentuate the effect of what is being said. A few examples follow:
"Around the rugged rocks the ragged rascal ran" is an example of alliteration, where the consonant r is used repeatedly.
Whereas, "Sister Suzy sewing socks for soldiers" is a particular form of alliteration called sibilance, because it repeats the letter s.
Both are commonly used in poetry.
"She would run up the stairs and then a new set of curtains" is a variety of zeugma called a syllepsis. Run up refers to ascending and also to manufacturing. The effect is enhanced by the momentary suggestion, through a pun, that she might be climbing up the curtains. The ellipsis or omission of the second use of the verb makes the reader think harder about what is being said.
"Painful pride" is an oxymoron where two contradictory ideas are placed in the same sentence.
"An Einstein" is an example of synecdoche, as it uses a particular name to represent a class of people: geniuses.
"I had butterflies in my stomach" is a metaphor, referring to a nervous feeling as if there were flying insects in one's stomach.
To say "it was like having some butterflies in my stomach" would be a simile, because it uses the word like which is missing in the metaphor.
To say "It was like having a butterfly farm in my stomach," "It felt like a butterfly farm in my stomach," or "I was so nervous that I had a butterfly farm in my stomach" could be a hyperbole, because it is exaggerated.
"That filthy place was really dirty" is an example of tautology, as there are the two words ('filthy' and 'dirty') having almost the same meaning and are repeated so as to make the text more emphatic.
Scholars of classical Western rhetoric have divided figures of speech into two main categories: schemes and tropes. Schemes (from the Greek schēma, form or shape) are figures of speech that change the ordinary or expected pattern of words. For example, the phrase, "John, my best friend" uses the scheme known as apposition. Tropes (from the Greek trepein, to turn) change the general meaning of words. An example of a trope is irony, which is the use of words to convey the opposite of their usual meaning ("For Brutus is an honorable man; / So are they all, all honorable men").
During the Renaissance, scholars meticulously enumerated and classified figures of speech. Henry Peacham, for example, in his The Garden of Eloquence (1577), enumerated 184 different figures of speech. Professor Robert DiYanni, in his book "Literature – Reading Fiction, Poetry, Drama and the Essay" [6] wrote: "Rhetoricians have catalogued more than 250 different figures of speech, expressions or ways of using words in a nonliteral sense.".
For simplicity, this article divides the figures between schemes and tropes, but does not further sub-classify them (e.g., "Figures of Disorder"). Within each category, words are listed alphabetically. Most entries link to a page that provides greater detail and relevant examples, but a short definition is placed here for convenience. Some of those listed may be considered rhetorical devices, which are similar in many ways.

Main article: Scheme (linguistics)
accumulation: Accumulating arguments in a concise forceful manner.
adnomination: Repetition of words with the same root word.
alliteration: a literary stylistic device, where a series of words in a row have the same first consonant sound.

Using these formulas, a pupil could render the same subject or theme in a myriad of ways. For the mature author, this principle offered a set of tools to rework source texts into a new creation. In short, the quadripartita ratio offered the student or author a ready-made framework, whether for changing words or the transformation of entire texts. Since it concerned relatively mechanical procedures of adaptation that for the most part could be learned, the techniques concerned could be taught at school at a relatively early age, for example in the improvement of pupils’ own writing.

The Ford Excursion is a heavy duty (Class 2), extended-length sport utility vehicle that was produced by Ford from 1999 to 2005, launched in late September 1999 for the North American market. The longest and heaviest SUV ever to enter mass production, the Excursion was based upon the Ford F-250 Super Duty pickup truck. A ¾-ton chassis vehicle, the Ford Excursion was designed as a competitor for the 2500-series (also ¾-ton) Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL.[2]
Due to criticism over its large size, poor fuel economy, and declining sales, the Excursion was discontinued after the 2005 model year in the United States (Mexico received a short 2006 production run). For the 2007 model year, the Excursion was largely replaced as Ford introduced an extended-length version of the Ford Expedition (Expedition EL in United States; Expedition Max in Canada/Mexico), although it is only a Class 1 SUV.
All examples of the Ford Excursion were assembled at the Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville, Kentucky; the last vehicle was produced September 30, 2005.

Origin[edit]
1989 Centurion Classic C350 XLT 4x4
Although Ford would not produce a factory-built competitor for the Chevrolet Suburban on an official basis until the introduction of the Excursion for 2000, a functional predecessor of the vehicle was created by the aftermarket. The Centurion Classic is a four-door SUV based on the full-size Ford Bronco constructed by Centurion Vehicles, a converter specializing in Ford trucks based in White Pigeon, Michigan.[3] Two models of the Classic were produced: the C150 (based on the F-150) and the C350 (based on the F-350).
To create a four-door Bronco, Centurion mated the bodywork of two separate vehicles. An F-Series chassis (shortened to a 140-inch wheelbase[4]) with a crew-cab body was mated to the rear body of a Ford Bronco (aft of the door openings). The use of the Bronco bodyshell gave the Classic three rows of seating, as in a Suburban; depending on the design configuration, a Classic could seat up to nine.
In contrast to the Suburban and later Ford Excursion, the Classic C350 was produced on a one-ton chassis instead of a ¾-ton chassis. Following the F-Series, the C150 offered 5.0L and 5.8L V8s while the C350 offered a 7.5L gasoline V8 and a diesel V8 (IDI and later 7.3L PowerStroke). Rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive drivetrain configurations were available.
The Centurion Classic ended its production after the 1996 model year as Ford discontinued the Bronco in favor of its own four-door SUV, the Ford Expedition. Closer in size and function to the Centurion C350, the Ford Excursion was introduced for the 2000 model year.
Design overview[edit]
Chassis[edit]
Ford Excursion Limited next to 1992–1996 Toyota Camry
The Ford Excursion is produced sharing the platform architecture of the F-250 Super Duty pickup truck. Sharing nearly all of its chassis components, the Excursion shares a common width, front and rear track, and wheelbase. Along with the common drivetrain, the Excursion shared its front and rear suspension and steering gear with the F-250. The rear axle for all Excursions was a Sterling 10.5 axle. The four wheel drive models were equipped with a NV273 transfer case and Dana 50 front axle.

Although using the 3/4 ton chassis of the F-250 (its indirect predecessor, the Centurion Classic C350 used the one-ton F-350 chassis), the Excursion was rated with a GVWR of 8,900 lb (4,000 kg) when equipped with gasoline engines, and 9,200 lb (4,200 kg) with equipped with diesel engines. Its GVWR was above 8,500 lbs, exempting it from EPA fuel economy ratings; reviewers cited fuel economy in the range of 12-15mpg.[6]
During the development of the chassis, Ford learned that its initial design caused smaller vehicles (such as a Ford Taurus) to become severely overridden in a head-on collision. In the test, the tire of the Excursion drove up to the windshield of the Taurus, reducing the chance of survival for the Taurus driver.[7] As a response, Ford modified the chassis to include an under-bumper "blocker beam"; the device was initially tested by the French transportation ministry in 1971.[7] For the rear of the chassis, Ford chose to include a trailer hitch as standard equipment in production to reduce underriding in rear-end collisions by smaller vehicles.
Body[edit]
2000–2004 Ford Excursion Limited
2005 Ford Excursion XLT
Aside from the Chevrolet Suburban and its GMC/Cadillac counterparts and the International Harvester Travelall, the Ford Excursion is among one of the only regular-production sport-utility vehicles produced with four full-length passenger doors (shared with the Super Duty Crew Cab). As with the Expedition, the Excursion received an eggcrate in place of the gray grille seen on its F-Series counterpart. In place of a liftgate, the cargo door of the Excursion was designed with a 3-way door: an upper liftgate paired with two dutch doors (similar to later models of the Chevrolet Astro). In one change from the F-Series, Ford added the larger taillights of the E-Series van to the Excursion.
Most of the interior was largely shared with the Super Duty trucks, although the Excursion was designed for three-row seating for up to nine passengers. A minor change occurred for the 2002 model year where it received a digital odometer. As with other Ford trucks, the Excursion was sold in XL (sold nearly exclusively for fleet sales), XLT (standard trim), and Limited. In 2003, Ford added the Eddie Bauer trim package sold on other Ford SUVs to the Excursion.
For 2005, the exterior changed for the first time, as Ford replaced the eggcrate grille, replacing it with the "3-bar" grille introduced on Super Duty trucks.
Reception[edit]
The Excursion was introduced in 1999 as a 2000 model-year vehicle. It was described by Popular Science as the "biggest sport utility on the planet."[8] Sales were initially good, peaking in the 2000 model year with over 50,000 sales. As the energy crisis of the 2000s began and fuel prices rose, sales declined.[9] The Excursion's large size and poor fuel economy led to it being dubbed the Ford Valdez by The Sierra Club,[10] in reference to the Exxon Valdez supertanker, and in 2007 TIME Magazine selected it as one of the Fifty Worst Cars of All Time.[11]
Variants[edit]

F-250 Tropivan[edit]
From 1998 to 2012, a second-party SUV conversion of the Ford F-250 was sold in Brazil.[12] Similar in design and layout to the Excursion, the F-250 Tropivan differed primarily in its being a second-party conversion (similar to the Centurion Classic). In contrast to the Excursion, two different wheelbases of the model were produced.
As with all Super Duty trucks in Brazil, the Tropivan had a different engine selection throughout its production run that included the 4.2 L Essex V6 as the only gasoline-powered option, while the Diesel offering consisted of a 3.9 L Cummins B-series and the 4.2 L straight-6 MWM Sprint 6.07TCA.
Aftermarket[edit]
Aftermarket Ford Excursion stretch limousines were created during its 2000–2005 production run.
After the 2005 model year. the rear body panels of the Ford Excursion have been utilized for a number of vehicle conversions because of its shared bodywork with the Ford F-650 Super Duty medium-duty truck chassis. The practice is similar to the original Centurion Classic C350s of the 1980s and 1990s.
Based on the 2010–2014 Ford SVT Raptor SuperCrew, the Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV used the rear roofline of the Excursion to create an SUV body from the Raptor pickup truck.
