Exact to Homespun

Tick Tack the water beat very loudly on the house top.
It beats slow and heavily like bullets on a humans body.
(exact)
Tommy ran outside to show john the puddle in the back yard.
look Tommy, look at all that water.
(figurative)
what is the predominance of this rain anyway?
It only causes no time for recess.
(Formal)
Hey i have no problem in loosing recess.
I don't even make a good playing partner anyway .
(Grotesque)
Howdie! Tommy look at me i am a cow boy hew haw.

(homespun)

Exact and Figurative are reversed. Also, Groteque does not capture that type of language.
