PICTURESQUE FIGURES or Description Figures . Group 1. Diction figures consist of 4 subgroups : 1 . 1 TRANSFORMATION FIGURES, 1 . 2 . REPEAT FIGURES , 1 . 3 OMISSION FIGURES , 1 . 4 POSITION FIGURES . Within the latter there are, in turn, 4 literary figures, namely : 1 . 4 . 1 HYPOBATON, 1 . 4 . 2 ANASTROFE OR INVESTMENT , 1 . 4 . 3 TEMESIS OR LEXICAL ENCAVALGATION and 1 . 4 . 4 SYNCHYSYS , MIXTURA VERBORUM , CACOSINTETON or SYNQUISIS . The symchisis consists of transposing terms into a sentence to get a rhyme or to disrupt the order of it. In Latin it was easy to understand and reconstruct it through cases, which in Latin formed morphological declines. In Spanish there are only prepositional declines so it is very difficult to understand or rebuild them.
