Answered by Light1729

Simile is where we compare two things using 'like/as'. Eg: He was as brave as a lion in the fight.

Metaphor: When we compare without using 'like/as'. Eg: He was a lion in the fight.

Light1729: Mark as brainliest

Light1729: Thanks

yousf: but my question is that whether simile is indirect comparison or metaphor

Light1729: metaphor is indirect comparison

yousf: please explain

Light1729: as we dont use the words 'like or as' it is a mode of indirect comparison

yousf: thanks

simile means comparison with like or as
eg . the girl is as beautiful as flower

where as metaphor means there will be no use of like
eg. the man fought in war
