Language features: As you will see in your Section A questions in AQA English Language Paper 2, writers will use a variety of language features to engage their audiences and persuade/argue/explain/advice
to them, whatever their purpose. Use the right features in your own writing – each form, purpose and audience has different requirements so be careful!
 Using like/as to compare one thing to another. This where a number of words begin with the same letter or sound.

 Alliteration
 The man was as tall as a skyscraper. The angry, aggressive aardvark ate all the apricots.
 She moved like a snail! Mr W wrote wildly on the whiteboard.
Simile

 Similes help readers to picture a particular object, person or place by comparing something they don’t Alliteration creates a memorable sound in the readers’ head that means they notice that particular line

Metaphor

 He was a monster truck on the football field. Verbs are actions or ‘doing words’. E.g. run, skip, jumping, arguing, shouting, cry, crying, etc.

 Verbs
 She is over the moon about her exam results. Both can be used carefully to evoke or give off certain emotions or feelings.

 Metaphors help readers to picture a particular object, person or place by transforming them into
 something they understand better. They can also be used for exaggeration.

 This is a type of metaphor, where something non‐human is described in a human way. Adjectives are words that describe nouns. E.g. tall, short, wide, skinny, ugly, beautiful, amazing,
 The wind whistled past his face. spectacular, boring, etc.
Personification

 Adjectives and

 they understand better. They can also be used for exaggeration.
 These are both used to add to descriptions and help build specific images or feelings in the readers’
 heads.

 The terrifying, disgusting, powerful monster quickly and sharply jumped off the building.
Repetition

 Rhetorical
 Repetition is where you repeat a word, phrase or idea again and again. This is a question that is asked in order to create a dramatic effect or to make a point rather than to

 actually get an answer.
 E.g. “Run! Run! Run!” she shouted at him.
 Example: Why had they put me in this place?
 Repetition helps to stick an idea in the readers’ heads or helps to emphasise a particular idea or feeling.

 This is where a writer will speak directly to their readers in their writing, often using the pronoun ‘you’. These are used to make a piece of writing sound more serious or official.
 Statistics and facts help to back up opinions and make them sound more authoritative.

 Facts and
 Statistics
Address
 Direct

 You must see that this kind of inaction is wrong, you can do something to change it.
 E.g. 75% of all statistics are made up on the spot.
 Direct address makes the reader feel involved in the text, that they have a sense of responsibility for the
 topic the writer is explaining, arguing or persuading about. Direct address is a very common technique
 used in speeches as well.
 It’s important to know the differences between facts and opinions when it comes to Paper 2. An opinion Exaggerated ideas that aren’t meant to be taken literally or at face value.
 is a belief that cannot be proven, but facts are statements of truth that can be proven. Hyperbole
Opinions

 Example: This is the worst day of my life.
 Liverpool are the best team in the world – opinion
 Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 4‐3 in January 2019 – fact You see, it probably isn’t the worst day of your life, but the use of hyperbole accentuates the point that
 this was an awful day.
 How do the writers in your two exam texts use facts and opinions? Do they get across a sense of bias
 or seeming to favour one side of an argument?
 Sometimes these are called ‘rules of three’ or ‘triples’, but they all mean the same thing: three ideas in a This is a term for any words that try to evoke emotions from the reader, so to make them feel guilty, sad

 Emotive
Triplets

 Example: England were rampant, ferocious and destructive against Ireland in the Six Nations Homelessness is a cruel nightmare that robs people of their dignity – it is hard to believe ordinary
 people could lead such atrocious lives in the 21st century.
 Putting three adjectives or ideas together provides emphasis, exaggeration and simply sounds pleasant
 to the ear. It’s true! Emotive language is very useful for emphasis and exaggeration but also in winning over a read to your
 ideas.
