“synonymous‚ antithetical‚ and synthetic”. Parallelisms are ideas that don’t always interact with other words but they are repetition of words in structure form. One of the three forms of parallelism is synonymous‚ which can be defined as “closed similarity between line structures of the writing (Tullock & McEntire‚ 2006 p. 189).” Secondly‚ the antithetical form of parallelism is when the “second line contrast with the first line (Tullock & McEntire‚ 2006 p. 189).” Lastly‚ the synthetic form of parallelism
