onomatopoeia - has got to be the weirdest word in your vocabulary so remember it because it is so freaky. It means the WORD sounds like the sound it represents - POP, FIZZ, snap, crackle, zip, fizzle, BOOM! CLANG!
oxymoron- two contradictory terms are combined
Paradox- a contradiction
A logical fallacy - if you eat that seed a watermelon will grow out
