Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
- A metaphor could be a figure of speech that directly refers to at least one thing by mentioning another for rhetorical effect. it should provide clarity or identify hidden similarities between two different ideas.
- In communication, metaphors are accustomed help illustrate or explain something by comparing it to something else. Metaphors serve several purposes, including assisting people in vividly visualising unfamiliar concepts. Meaningfully explain unfamiliar situations.
- "The use of metaphors is comparatively late in modern European languages; it's, in essence, a post-Renaissance phenomenon," writes linguist Anatoly Liberman.
- In contrast, vivid and poetic samples of metaphor will be found within the ancient Hebrew psalms (circa 1000 B.C.) like "The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and also the horn of my salvation, my stronghold" and "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." On the opposite hand, some recent linguistic theories regard all language as essentially metaphorical.
Thus this is the answer.
