Elipsa (stilska figura)
Elipsa je stilska figura. Upotrebljava se u slučajevima kada se želi postići jezgrovitost, kratkoća i punoća izraza, takozvana lapidarnost. Tako su narodne poslovice veoma često izrečene u eliptičnom obliku:
- „Zrno po zrno pogača; kamen po kamen – palača.“
- „Mladost – ludost.“
Pošto je eliptično izražavanje kratko, neki pesnici elipsom pokušavaju da ostvare jezgrovitost svoga jezika.
