Metaphors
The word metaphor comes from a Greek word meaning 'transfer'. Metaphors
compare two things or ideas: a quality or feature of one thing is transferred
to another thing. Some common metaphors are
the leg of the table: The leg supports our body. So the object that supports
a table is described as a leg.
the heart of the city: The heart is an important organ in the centre of our
body. So this word is used to describe the central area of a city.
In pairs, find metaphors from the story to complete the table below. Try
to say what qualities are being compared. One has been done for you.

Answer:

I love metaphors more than similes. Metaphors are figurative language used to refer to another thing in order to show that they are similar. Similes use the word "like" to show the similarity in comparison. In metaphors we cannot use "like".

Her voice is music to my ears. (Metaphor)

Her voice is like music to my ears. (Simile)

A few metaphors describing a person:

  1. You are my sunshine.
  2. He is the black sheep of the family.
  3. You helped me again, you are an angel.
