Question

Identify the figure of speech for '' Like the banners in the sky '' and explain it.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The ‘figure of speech’ for “Like the banners in the sky” is Simile.

Explanation:

Simile is one of the figures of speech in which things are compared to each other and words ‘like’ or ‘as’ are used. In order to identify it, note that there is direct comparison. If in a sentence, indirect comparison is made without using like or as, then it is metaphor. In the above referred example, ‘like’ is used to compare something with the banner in the sky. Hence, the figure of speech used is simile.
