I'm trying to learn meanings of new words and was wondering what these words such as this meant...

Objective Description
Subjective Description
Dominant Impression
Figure of Speech
Metaphor
First Person Point Of View
Third person point of view
Compare
Contrast (does this mean compare?)
Transition (as in a phrase or word)

Hi, andyhaus1057!

You know, you could put every one of those into a Google search and find out what they mean just by putting the word "definition" after each of them. Don't need to include the quote marks.

For example:

Objective Description
Objective Description Definition - Google Search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=Objective+Description+Definition&spell=1)

Subjective Description
Subjective Description Definition - Google Search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Subjective+Description+Definition&btnG=Search)

Dominant Impression
Dominant Impression Definition - Google Search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Dominant+Impression+Definition&btnG=Search)

I'm sure that you could do the rest. :)

Thanks!
