Abstract

The relevance of the study of tropes and figures of speech, which are part of rhetoric, in our days is associated with the fact that today rhetoric is experiencing a period of revival. In connection with the orientation of modern linguistics to the study of language development processes, a deep and comprehensive study of tropes and figures of speech is of undoubted interest, since in recent years the rate of replenishment of the vocabulary of the language is increasing, there are many "fresh" metaphors, synecdoches, periphrases, zeugmas that require linguistic analysis.
