Answer 2

Answer:

Simile is the figure of speech used bu the narrator in this sentence.

We have to possess a little bit of knowledge regarding figures of speech to identify this.

Explanation:

• Primarily, 'simile' refers to a figure of speech comparing two unlike things using 'like' or 'as'.
• Example: Her cheeks were as red as apples.
• In the mentioned example, the cheeks of a girl are compared with apple. It is an unlike comparison but that's the beauty of 'simile'.
• Same is happening in the given sentence, the blue colour is compared with the wings of a halcyon wild using 'as'.

Hence, the correct figure of speech is 'simile'.
