Answer:
Metaphor is the literary device that is being utilized in this sentence.
Explanation:
- The clouds are referred to as "pillows of cotton" as a metaphor because they appear to be soft pillows, particularly when viewed from an aeroplane.
- A metaphor is a figure of speech in which an object or action is described in a manner that is not literally true, but which helps explain a concept or make a comparison. Metaphors can be used to make comparisons and explain ideas.
- A metaphor compares one thing to another by stating that the two are interchangeable.
- It likens those two things because they're not the same in any way, shape, or form; rather, it does so for the purpose of comparison or symbolism.
- Metaphors are a common device in poetry, literature, and any other context in which a speaker wishes to add nuance to their words.
