Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can explain how Berry uses onomatopoeia, phonetic dialect, and anaphora in order to consider ideas of voice and identity.

Show transcript
Berry may have personified the accent in order to show the emotional connection between voice and individual. Berry uses vivid sound imagery such as onomatopoeia and cacophony within the poem. Berry’s juxtaposition of the regular stanzas yet the irregular rhyme may represent the struggle of the accent to escape. Arguably, the anaphora emphasises the speaker’s desire to form a connection and shared identity with the speaker.
