grammar, a figure whereby one part of speech is used for another; e.g., velle quam cuique est, for voluntas tua cuique est; alfo, populus late rex, for populatus late regnans.

a more restrained sense, is a figure where the noun is repeated instead of the pronoun. The antimeria is frequent in the Hebrew, and is sometimes retained in our version of the Old Testament accordingly: e.g., Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, for my wives, Gen. iv. 23.
