AllusionAn allusion is..

a statement that refers to something without mentioning it directly

'Allusion' means referring to something in an indirect, roundabout way.

Example: For instance, when I say, "Chocolate is my Achilles' heel!" I am indicating towards my weakness for chocolates in an indirect, stylishly attractive way instead of passing a prosaic statement on the lines of, "Chocolates are my weakness.

An Illusion is…

What is Illusion?

Something that deceives by producing a false or misleading impression of reality.

'Illusion', on the other hand means an impression of something that does not (or did not), in fact, exist. It's a false perception, an unreal image which has no

basis in any existing factual state.Example: For instance, when I say, "The magician was a master of illusions who

conjured tricks that very cleverly made us believe that we saw him speaking with spirits of the dead on the stage!”

Irony is… The use of words to convey a meaning that is the

opposite of its literal meaning “I couldn't win the match, thanks to the correct decisions

of the referee. The statements clearly indicates that the tennis player was not at all satisfied with the decisions made by the referee. Indirectly, the player is blaming the referee for his loss. The statement is indicating the referee's inability to take correct decisions.”http://www.buzzle.com/articles/examples-of-irony.html

Foreshadowing Foreshadowing as a technique focuses on providing clues of what is to

follow in the plot.

Example: Juliet says:

"If he be married.My grave is like to be my wedding bed".

In this Juliet means to say that if Romeo is married, she will be unmarried throughout her life and go to her grave unmarried. But as it turns out, her wedding bed does become her grave.

Analogy An Analogy aids the reader, to perhaps, have a

visual understanding of the logic of what you are trying to exhibit. Example: "My writing is to me, as flying is to a bird." In this

statement, I am trying to emphasize the importance of my work as a writer. Just as flying is essential to a bird, so is writing to me.
