Abstract

Abstract: Nizami wrote Layla Majnun, while William Shakespeare wrote
Romeo and Juliet. These books are tradegy romances. Romantic tragedies frequently
employ a great deal of figurative language to enhance their writing. This research
attempts to describe a few different types of figurative language from the novels Layla
Majnun and Romeo and Juliet, as well as a comparison of the various types of
figurative language from each work. Qualitative data were collected for this
investigation. This indicates that the data are not numerical in nature. Discourse,
including conversations, descriptions, concepts, and viewpoints, made up the data. The
study's primary sources of data are the tragedy novels. Since novelists frequently use
figurative language to convey their ideas, the majority of the data that have been
gathered are discourse and dialogue excerpts from the books. The discourse and
dialogue taken from the novels contain a number of figurative languages that can be
understood by applying pragmatics theory to determine their meaning. The study's
conclusions show that the two novels' figurative languages have both parallels and
divergences.The results of this study indicate that there are similarities and differences
in figurative languages in the two novels. The similarities between the two novels are
Personification, Metaphore, Hyperbole, and Simile. The differences between the two
novels are: Parable, Embodiment, Cynicism, Repetitive, and Irony.
