Question

hola,

what is the definition of metaphor??

please give a small definition

Answer 1

a word or phrase that is used in an imaginative way to show that somebody/something has the same qualities as another thing.
‘Her words were a knife in his heart’ is a metaphor

Answer 2

Metaphor describes an object or action in a way that isn’t literally true, but helps explain an idea or make a comparison.


Tips to find a metaphoric statement-
A metaphor states that one thing isanother thing

It equates those two things not because they actually are the same, but for the sake of comparison or symbolism

If you take a metaphor literally, it will probably sound very strange (are there actually any sheep, black or otherwise, in your family?)

Metaphors are used in poetry, literature, and anytime someone wants to add some color to their language



Examples-
1.Love is a battlefield.

2.Bob is a couch potato.

3 Baby, you’re a firework.

4.I am titanium.


Hope this helps you...
