Simile, Metaphor and Personification
Observe the following sentences.
1. Here and there over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars NG
In this sentence flowers are compared to stars. Such a comparison using like
and 'as' is called a 'simile'.
eg a He roared like a lion.
b Her face is as white as snow
2 Life is a journey. Enjoy the ride.
In the above sentence the word 'journey' is used to describe/compare the word *life'. Such words are called metaphors. They are used to show that the two
things have the same qualities. They make the description more powerful
e.g:a Rudramadevi was a lioness in battle
b.
Her home was a prison.
Spring has forgotten garden
Here, though 'spring' is a season, it is represented as a human being and given the
qualities of forgetting etc. Such usage in literature is called personification.
The stars danced playfully in the moonlit sky b. The snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak.
