Fiction (when it is a made - up story). Fiction is a broad term that encompasses various forms of fictional stories such as novels, short stories, and novellas. It is used to distinguish made - up stories from non - fictional ones like biographies or historical accounts.
Account.
Legend. A legend is a type of story that is often based on some historical events or figures but has been embellished over time with fictional elements. Legends usually have a certain cultural significance and are passed down through generations, like the legends of King Arthur in English folklore.
There are a few more. 'Myth' is one. Myths are traditional stories that usually explain natural phenomena or cultural beliefs. Another one is 'epic', which is a long, heroic story. And 'romance' can also be seen as a type of story, often involving love and adventure.
Sure. 'Supplemental stories' and 'flanking stories' are other names for side stories.
There are a few less common ones. 'Story - crafting' is one. It emphasizes the creative process of making a story, like a craftsman carefully creating a piece. 'Narrative - constructing' is also not as commonly used but it shows the building or putting together of a narrative. And 'Tale - concocting' gives the idea of creating a story in a somewhat imaginative and perhaps less traditional way.
A apocraphal story can be named as an unsubstantiated story. Such stories don't have enough proof or evidence to back them up, just like when we say a claim is unsubstantiated. They float around without the necessary factual basis, much like rumors that may or may not have any truth in them.
A love story can also be named as 'Love account'. It's like an account of the love journey that two people experience. It might include details about their first meeting, how they felt about each other at different stages, and the memorable moments in their relationship.
The words 'blackguard' and 'rapscallion' can also be used to refer to a villain. 'Blackguard' has a sense of being morally corrupt and 'rapscallion' gives an idea of a rascally, unruly villain. Another one is 'miscreant', which emphasizes the wrong - doing nature of the character.
One less common name could be a faerie story. This emphasizes more on the faerie or fairy aspect of the tale, focusing on the magical creatures within the story. It gives a more specific connotation related to the fairies and their world.
Mike. Mike is a young and energetic policeman. He is good at using high - tech equipment to solve cases, like fingerprint scanners and surveillance cameras. In the story, he often comes up with new ideas to catch the criminals.
