What is metaphor rhyming scheme ? Give correct explanation with example urgently
Answers
Answer:
Metaphor is a literary device which is used to compare two things without using like or as.
Answer:
A metaphor and a simile are quite similar actually. A metaphor also uses
compares to things that are in no way similar. It does so to bring out the
symbolism. A metaphor is a word or phrase used to show its similarity to
another thing. It helps to explain an idea, but if you take a metaphor at its literal
meaning it will sound absurd.
An example of a metaphor is “Alex is a chicken”. Literally, this sounds so very
absurd. But this is a metaphor which suggests that Alex is a coward, or
frightened. It compares or implies that Alex is a chicken to bring out the
symbolism. Some other examples are ‘love is a battlefield”, “all the world’s a
stage”, “that technology is a dinosaur” etc.
While a simile and metaphor seem to be very similar, there is one basic difference between the two. In a simile, the comparison happens with the help of the words “as” and “like”. A metaphor will not have either of those two words.
