Is imagery a figure of speech?. The English text book of class VIII published by the govt of Andhra Pradesh on page 14 states that Imagery is a figurative language:" language which describes something in detail, using words to substitute for and create sensory stimulation, including visual imagery and sound imagery". And how come that you have not included it in the list.

Is Palindrome also a figure of Speech? And what about Satire, Irony, Idioms, Phrases and Proverbs, Epigram, Antithesis, Innuendo.

By mistake I mentioned Irony & Antithesis, which you had already covered in the article.
