Second, the general method of writing short messages

1, the metaphor makes sense

Metaphor is also a common method when writing short messages. Using metaphor can make language lively and interesting, give readers more imagination and enhance aesthetic effect.

For example: you are the kindling, lighting the fire in students' hearts; You are a stone step, bearing the footsteps of my steady upward climb; You are a candle, burning yourself and illuminating others.

The highlight of this short message is that it uses three metaphors to express gratitude to teachers on Teacher's Day, which is very creative and literary.

2. The contrast is clever

Contrast is also a method that should be paid attention to when compiling short messages. By contrast, two different sides of a thing can set off each other and complement each other, thus leaving a deep impression on readers.

Example: the meteor crossed the sky, and I missed my wish; The waves beat against the rocks, and I missed the blessing; The story was told once, but I missed it; There is only one life, and I'm glad I didn't miss you as a good friend! I invite you to enjoy the moon with me tonight!

This short message first uses three "misses" to put on a momentum, with the purpose of comparing with the latter "no miss" and showing their profound friendship.

3. Duality is neat

Duality is also a common rhetorical device in short messages. If used properly, it will definitely make literary talent shine.

Example: The Yellow River is rolling and the Yangtze River is surging, with a long history. Walking through thousands of waters in Qian Shan and experiencing bumpy miles, it has created brilliance and breath. Touched! Moved by it, up to now, Qi Huan is celebrating and enjoying happiness all over the country.

In this short message, from the "Yellow River" and "Yangtze River" into the topic, the use of duality, so that the sentence is neat and decent, open and close naturally, very literary.

4, parallelism shows momentum

Parallelism is one of the most commonly used rhetorical methods in short message editing. The use of parallelism, neat and symmetrical sentence patterns, sonorous rhymes and strong sense of rhythm can produce rainbow-like momentum.

Example: bright moon, flashing, hanging in the horizon; Missing, a little bit, connected into a line; Memories, scene after scene, are just around the corner; May people get together every year!

This short message successfully uses parallelism, and through the use of parallelism, it expresses the thoughts of friends in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Reading in one go really adds motivation.

5. Levels convey profound meanings.

When editing short messages, layered sending is also a common method. It can express progressive things with sentences with similar structure and rising or falling content.

Ex: My romantic heart, full of blessings, is quietly sent to you. I wish you peace all the time, contentment all the time and happiness every day and night! Whenever and wherever, don't forget that my blessing won't go far.

This short message extends the time range through "every minute", "every moment" and "day and night" in turn, subtly expressing endless blessings to friends.

6. The gyro is really great.

Real skills are also one of the most commonly used methods to edit short messages. In one go, people feel the feeling of short messages in a very short time.

For example, there are faint poems in the long clouds, endless joy in the faint poems, and my gentle greetings during the Spring Festival!

This short message, in the most authentic way, is wonderful and unusual, light and affectionate, and it is a pleasure to read. This is the real beauty of technology.

7. Reduplication and color enhancement

The use of overlapping words is also a common method of short message writing, which can naturally express meaning on the basis of concise overlapping words.

Exodus: The long road cannot change Kuafu's determination to chase the sun; The vast sea can't destroy Jingwei's will to fill the sea; Shallow bays can only add deep homesickness, but they can't shake our belief in unity. Taiwan Province Province, come back!

In this short message, three overlapping words "long", "boundless" and "shallow" are used to express the good wishes of Taiwan Province Province to return to the embrace of the motherland at an early date.

8. See the truth again and again

Repetition is a common method in short message compilation. It can play a role in emphasizing emotions, so it is widely loved by people.

Example: Mid-Autumn Festival is full of flowers, your home is round, my home is round, and every family is reunited; National Day is celebrated by people of all ethnic groups, Jiangnan, Jiangbei and the whole country.

This typical short message, compiled by repeated methods, expresses the national reunion and celebration during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

9. Rhyme endows literary talent

Rhyme is also a skill in writing short messages. Rhyme makes short messages catchy to read, produces a strong sense of rhythm and music, and often achieves unforgettable results.

Example: smile at night and have a good sleep; Smile in the morning, and life is full of emotions all day; Laugh after work, and the room is full of joy and excitement; Smile when you are sad and forget all your troubles!

This short message rhymes with the words "laugh", "sleep", "tune", "noisy" and "drip", which is touching to read and expresses good wishes to friends in a relaxed and lively atmosphere.

10, inversion increases humor

The reversal of language is often the solemnity of the previous language, which seems to describe a topic that most people can think of, but in the end it suddenly turns around and has a hilarious ending.

Example: Why did you leave without telling me? With your company every night, I can only dream of dawn. The night without you is long and bleak. Come back, dear! ..... my quilt.

This short message uses the technique of inversion, and has achieved unexpected results. Like "How painful it is to leave. Your leaving will make me feel at a loss. I really want you to live with me, but ... Mom said,' There are no pigs at home!' ""after watching it, it really makes people laugh.

1 1, tell the truth.

Sometimes making up a unique story can move people more, and it is easy to move people by incorporating some special emotions into the detailed description.

For example, if there is an afterlife, let's be a pair of little mice, silly love, dull life, clumsy snuggling, silly together. When the mountains are closed by snow and ice, we nest in the warm haystack, and I hold you and feed you the stolen food.

In this short message, a pair of lovers are compared to a pair of mice, and their love is written with some lovely actions of the mice, which is touching.

12, a profound pun

Homophonic pun is also one of the methods often used in short message writing. It looks very atmospheric and cultural, so it is often unforgettable.

For example, the New Year is the hope in my heart; A new beginning, the harvest of the heart; A new starting point, inner happiness May happiness and wealth be with you forever. Happy New Year!

In this short message, "heart" and "new" are mainly homophonic, so as to make a pun, draw inferences from others, and repeatedly emphasize the best wishes of the Spring Festival.

13, the number series is clever

Sometimes the proper use of numbers and the arrangement of some numbers in a certain order can also produce unexpected results.

For example: one sentence is cold and warm, and one line is noisy; A reminder, a handed note; A lovesickness, looking forward to it with one heart; A friendship, a lifelong concern.

This short message uses the number "one" to express the yearning for friends and the persistence of friendship, which can be described as ingenious and natural.
