Quotation & Poetic Incorporation

The communicator takes a well-known text such as a proverb, poem, story, prophetic sayings, or Quranic verse and inserts it into a new text. When the inserted text is a well-known poetic line or part of it, this is known as taḍmīn. The device may be used narratively, such as by placing the borrowed line in the speech of a character.
