सार

The presented article investigates the scope and relevance of lexical literary techniques. The main characteristics of lexical devices are presented, as well as information on various techniques of exploring and studying them. The article explains words from the lexical level of the language as well as assessments of lexical devices provided by numerous dictionaries of literary terms and sources. In this article, we will discuss many methods to the analysis of literary words of figurative language, particularly lexical stylistic devices. Literary techniques such as simile, metaphor, personification, and others are examples of figurative language. Figurative language is defined in contrast to literal language, which only includes "proper" or dictionary definitions of terms. Figurative language frequently necessitates the reader or listener understanding additional subtleties, context, and allusions in order to grasp the second meaning.
