Anonymous: the answer is as follows:
sandeep2270: what
Anonymous: A figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g. as brave as a lion ) is called a simile
Anonymous: A metaphor also compares two things, but it does so more directly WITHOUT using as or like.
Anonymous: eg. "He really flared up my temper."
When someone flares up your temper, flames don't spew out of your body, you're just deeply angry.
Anonymous: since two users were already figuring it out. i could not answer below.
Anonymous: hope u understand.

Answer:

Metaphor

metaphor is a figure of speech containing an implied comparison. With metaphors, words or phrases that are ordinarily applied to one thing are applied to something you wouldn't necessarily pair it with.

eg.

   "I'm drowning in a sea of grief."

   Here grief is so overwhelming that the person feels helpless, like they're being pulled underwater.

   "She was fishing for compliments."

   The woman isn't literally casting a lure to hook compliments out of the ocean. Rather, it's a dead metaphor used to signify a desire for accolades.

   "Success is a sense of achievement; it is not an illegitimate child."

   This saying reinforces the belief that everyone wants to take credit for success, but no one wants to take responsibility for their failings.

   "He broke my heart."

   Your heart isn't literally broken; you're just feeling hurt and sad.

   "You light up my life."

   Of course, no one can provide physical light. This expression is simply saying that someone brings them joy.
