im reading this book writting by Zora Neil and was wondering where metonymy is used and why or how it is significant. im am supposed to write about 8 passages but im sure there arent 8 instances in the book where it is used so if anyone knows of any use of metaphor that would be appreciated.
metonymy is a trope in which one entity is used to stand for another associated entity
metaphor when something is compared to something that it is unrelated to
these are really broad definitions
any help would be appreciated
