Figurative Language Review

DO NOW: Pick 3 topics from this wheel.
2
Similes vs. Metaphors
Simile: a comparison between two things (using like and as)
My life is like a rollercoaster.
Metaphor: a comparison between two things (not using like or as)
My life is a rollercoaster.
Here, life and rollercoaster are being compared to show that life has its ups and downs. The only difference is the use of "like" that makes one a simile and the other a metaphor.
3
Personification
Personification is not a comparison.
It is when an object or part of nature is given human or animal-like characteristics.
The trees danced in the wind.
Actual meaning: the trees were blowing in the wind.
The wind howled in the night.
Actual meaning: the wind blew so hard it made a loud noise (like a wolf)
