Page 3.

Metaphor.: Darry wouldn't have actually died of boredom if he watched a movie. Ponyboy only says this to exaggerate his point about how Darry finds movies uninteresting because of his hard life.]]> 2017-11-06 21:03:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/204126050 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/204127942 "Greasers can't walk alone too much or they'll get jumped or someone will come by and scream "Greaser!" at them, which doesn't make you feel too hot, if you know what I mean.".

Page 2.

Idiom.: Ponyboy didn't actually feel colder because he was called a greaser, but just lost a little bit of his confidence after being insulted by a random stranger.]]> 2017-11-06 21:08:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/204127942 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205823464 "I was sweating something fierce, although I was cold.".

Page 4.

Irony.: Regardless of the fact that Ponyboy was sweating out of fear after being noticed by the Socs, he was still cold because of the low temperature outside.]]> 2017-11-10 20:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205823464 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205823840 "He pulled out a handkerchief, wet the end of it with his tongue, and pressed it gently against the side of my head. "You're bleedin' like a stuck pig.".

Page 7.

Metaphor.: Sodapop mentions how Ponyboy was bleeding heavily after being cut by one of the Socs, as if he was bleeding like a stuck pig.]]> 2017-11-10 20:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205823840 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205824220 ""Look!" He showed me the handkerchief, reddened as if by magic.".

Page 7.

SImile.: Ponyboy was merely only surprised by the fact that he was bleeding, comparing it to a magic trick, since it had the same effect of the unexpectedness of the situation to him.]]> 2017-11-10 20:28:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205824220 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205824438 The Outsiders is a book centering around a child named Ponyboy, who's in a gang referred to as greasers. His friend, Johnny, accidentally murders a person from a rival gang, referred to as the socs. Now, he and his friend must go on the run in an attempt to make sure that Johnny isn't sent to prison. The Outsiders manages to use a lot of figurative language. For example, when Ponyboy talks about how Darry is bored to death, he doesn't mean that he'll actually die, but simply means it as a metaphor. Another example of it was when Sodapop, Ponyboy's brother, mentioned how that when he was cut by one of the rival gangs' members, he said that he was bleeding like a stuck pig, as in he was bleeding heavily from the side of his head.]]> 2017-11-10 20:29:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205824438 jakubp24 https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205827840 2017-11-10 20:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jakubp24/e1xcb6ln7zvh/wish/205827840
