Explanation:

• Personification is a figure of speech in which a thing, idea, or expression is given human characteristics and/or emotions, or is discussed as if it were a person. Personification is a popular type of metaphor in which non-human objects are given human traits.
• A simile is a figure of speech in which two completely unrelated things or ideas are directly contrasted by using the words "like" or "as." With the aid of like or as, which are linguistic constructions that show equivalency, a simile is employed as a literary device to assert likeness.
• A literary phrase and figure of speech called hyperbole intensifies an impression by intentionally exaggerating it. A forcefully overblown or exaggerated declaration or statement that adds emphasis without intending to be literally true is called a hyperbole.

• A metaphor is a figurative language device that compares two unrelated things. Using metaphor as a literary tool, comparisons are made without the explicit usage of "like" or "as." When two objects are compared, metaphor might be used to claim that they are identical rather than just similar. This is helpful in writing when expressing abstract facts with specific imagery or notions.
