Answer 1

Answer:

A. Suggestion of figures of speech

Alankara Dhwani (Suggestion of Figures of Speech):

• This refers to the suggestion of a specific poetic figure or rhetorical embellishment (such as simile, metaphor, or hyperbole).

• The suggestive element enhances the aesthetic quality of the composition through these figures of speech.

• Example: Comparing a woman’s face to the moon not only states the comparison but subtly suggests beauty, elegance, and other associated qualities.
