An alphabetical listing from ‘a’ – a prefix derived from Greek, meaning ‘not’, ‘without’ – to ‘zeugma’ – a stylistic device in which a word, usually a verb, is followed by two words which would not usually be found together e.g. She arrived in a bikini and a flood of
tears, and every grammatical tern in between. A fabulous reference!
