A transferred epithet is a figure of speech in which an adjective is shifted from the person it logically describes to an object or idea closely associated with them. It is a poetic device that cleverly gives a dramatic or poetic effect to the sentence.
Transferred Epithet Examples:
- “He clung to the hopeful letter, re-reading her words under a dim lamp.”
- “Let's go for a walk. This peaceful breeze is too good to miss.”
- “Wrap yourself in a lazy weekend with the cozy blankets.”
- “Say goodbye to tired skin with our refreshing face wash.”
