Hyperbaton
Figure of speech
Hyperbaton
Hyperbaton , in its original meaning, is a figure of speech in which a phrase is made discontinuous by the insertion of other words. In modern usage, the term is also used more generally for figures of speech that transpose sentences' natural word order, which is also called anastrophe. Anastrophe is a hyponym of the antimetabole, where anastrophe only transposes one word in a sentence.
