Difference between Simile and Metaphor

  • Both similes and metaphors are used to make comparisons.
  • The difference between similes and metaphors comes down to a word.
  • Similes use the words like or as to compare things—“Life is like a box of chocolates.”
  • Metaphors directly state a comparison—“Love is a battlefield.”
