Wt is metaphor? With eg. Explain it

Answer 1

A metaphor is a word or phrase used to describe something as if it was something else. A metaphor isn't a comparison – that's a simile, where you say one thing is 'like' another (“Her eyes were like diamonds”). Instead, a metaphor is simply a statement where you are saying that one thing is another....

Answer 2

A metaphor is a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two unlike things. In this metaphor, Juliet is compared to the sun. ... In fact, this figure of speech claims that Juliet is the sun. Of course, the reader understands that Romeo does not believe that Juliet is literally the sun.
