Hi /lit/..
underage b& who just started school. sophomore now.

My english teacher gave me a homework assignment, and I don't fully understand it.

He wrote on the board, "List 5 literary elements you know and 2 you don't know."
Are literary elements sort of like.. foreshadowing, or the setting?

I would appreciate help, and thanks in advance.

Yeah, that's all they're asking it sounds like.
Pretty easy OP.

god i look at it and honestly i don't get turned on at all. i mean it isn't a woman, she looks like a kid. i don't understand pederasts. when a girl hits her early 20s and gets some hips and experience is when she's worth a fuck.

Sounds like some weaselly teacher curriculum bullshit that they've been teaching for years, they probably couldn't explain if you asked them.
