- @anticlimax: Arrangement of words in order of decreasing importance
- Changes in Word Order
- @anacoluthon: change in the syntax within a sentence
- @anastrophe: inversion of the usual word order
- @parenthesis: insertion of a clause or sentence in a place where it interrupts the natural flow of the sentence
- @apposition: placing of two elements side by side, in which the second defines the first
- Omission
- @ellipsis: omission of words
- @asyndeton: omission of conjunctions between related clauses
- @brachylogia: omission of conjunctions between a series of words
- Repetition
- @alliteration: series of words that begin with the same letter or sound alike
- @anaphora: repetition of the same word or group of words at the beginning of successive clauses
- @anadiplosis: repetition of a word at the end of a clause at the beginning of another
- @antanaclasis: repetition of a word in two different senses
- @antimetabole: repetition of words in successive clauses, in reverse order
- @assonance: repetition of vowel sounds, most commonly within a short passage of verse
- @chiasmus: reversal of grammatical structures in successive clauses
- @consonance: repetition of consonant sounds without the repetition of the vowel sounds
- @epanalepsis: repetition of the initial word or words of a clause or sentence at the end of the clause or sentence
- @pleonasm: Use of superfluous or redundant words
