Definition of Similes and metaphors
Both similes and metaphors are forms of analogy; they are descriptive figures of speech.
Simile- Simile is like comparing one thing to another by using "as" or "like"
*Example of similes
- Her face is like a wrecking ball
- He eats like dog
- He is as good as pro
- She is as cool as a wolf
- Jason is as strong as Elephant
Metaphor- A metaphor is like simile but directly stating it.
*Examples of Metaphors
- I am a dog
- He is an elephant
- She is an icicle
- He is pig
- I am weak

Hey Carl, something about your post that I liked was, that you were able to explain and give examples of what a Simile and Metaphor are, I also like that you were descriptive on what they are.
ReplyDeleteBut I also think you should work on your grammar, other than that it is really good.
