<p>Hey guys, to those taking ap english lit, I would like to share this technique my teacher created for writing thr prose and poetry portion of the free response essays. This acronym helps to use literary devices into your essays. So if you freak out after reading a passage or a poetey of the exam this can help you find literary elements, to help you figure what you can write about before tackling the essay. Its called FID CAN SPIT.</p>

<p>Figurative language (metaphor, simile, personification...)
Imagery
Diction</p>

<p>Charaterization
Anaphora (parallel structure, repition of a work or phrase)
Narration (types of point of view, i.e 1st or 3rd person of limited or omniscent view)</p>

<p>Structure (notice how its written, ie simple senteces, complex, long-winded, etc)
Paragraph Structure
Irony (is it satirical)
Tone (key diction, juxtaposition)</p>

<p>I hope this helps and good luck. I find very helpful jotting down quick references when remebering FID CAN SPIT. Hope you guys can.</p>
