Abstract

Lexical-syntactical stylistic devices are critical tools in language that create emphasis, enhance expressiveness, and convey meanings that go beyond the literal interpretation of words. This article provides a detailed analysis of key lexical-syntactical stylistic devices in the English language, such as antithesis, parallelism, inversion, chiasmus, and zeugma. It explores their functions, usage in literature and rhetoric, and their role in shaping meaning, emotional impact, and communicative effectiveness.
