Answer 1

Answer:

While these figures of speech are used to compare different things, here are some clear rules to help you distinguish between metaphor, simile, and analogy. A simile is saying something is like something else. A metaphor is often poetically saying something is something else.

Answer 2

Answer:

You can decide whether it is simile or metaphor by looking whether the sentence compares the object

with like/as - Simile or

without like/as - Metaphor.
