Function of Enumeration. By using enumeration, writers lay emphasis on certain ideas 
to elaborate them further. In fact, enumeration easily creates an impression on the minds 
of the readers. The details and listing make it easy for them to convey the real message

they want to impart. However, if there is no use of enumeration in a text, it might become 
difficult for the reader to get the true meanings of ideas

Asyndeton 
comes from Greek word a
syndeton
and means ‘unconnected’. It is a 
deliberate avoidance, omission of conjunctions in constructions where they should 
normally be used.

“He couldn't go abroad alone, the sea upset his liver, he hated hotels.”

“People sang, people fought, people loved.” 
Function of Asyndeton. Asyndeton helps in speeding up the rhythm of words. Mostly 
this technique is employed in speech but can be used in written works too. It helps in 
attracting the readers to collaborate with the writers, since it suggests that words, phrases 
and sentences are incomplete and the readers would have to do some work to deduce 
meanings. This version creates immediate impact and the readers are attuned to what the 
author is trying to convey. 
Polysyndeton
comes from the Greek 
poly
-, meaning ‘many’, and 
syndeton
, meaning 
‘bound together with’- is an identical repetition of conjunctions: used to emphasize 
simultaneousness of described actions, to disclose the author’s subjective attitude towards 
the characters, to create the rhythmical effect.
 
“
They were from Milan and one of them was to be a lawyer, andone was to be a painter, 
and one had intended to be a soldier.” (Ernest Hemingway) 
“The heaviest rain, and snow, and hail(град), and sleet(дождьсоснегом), could boast of 
the advantage over him in only one respect.”
Functions of polysyndeton. It is a stylistic scheme used to achieve a variety of effects: it 
can increase the rhythm of prose, speed or slow its pace, convey solemnity or even ecstasy 
and childlike exuberance. Another common use of polysyndeton is to create a sense of 
being overwhelmed, or in fact directly overwhelm the audience by using conjunctions, 
rather than commas, leaving little room for a reader to breathe.
