Figurative language is words, phrases, or expressions that mean something different than the literal meaning.

Authors use figurative language to make comparisons or for dramatic effect.

For example, if the author writes, “The girl sang her song loudly,“ this is literal language.

  • The girl sang loudly.

If the author writes, “The girl sang like a bird,” this is figurative language.

  • The girl did not literally sing like a bird.
