SLSL // is an easy acronym to use to check four main elements of text. It is only a basic foundation strategy for reviewing a passage or a poem, not a structuring principle for your commentary. You will need to be much more comprehensive with your analysis. //

S = structure (including form, sequence, point of view) L = language (meaning word choice, register of speaker or narrator) S = sound devices (such as alliteration, onomatopoeia, rhyme) L =literary features (such as tone, metaphor, personification)
