Answer:

Kenning

Explanation:

A kenning is a compound that expresses a particular image or object through striking metaphorical constructions, usually made with two words or a phrase.  

Kennings were mostly used in Old English and Old Norse literature, such as the epic poem Beowulf.

Another example is: battle-sweat, which means blood from combat.
