<h2>Metaphor compares two things that are not similar in any way.</h2>

As the term implies, a metaphor compares two things that are not similar in any way. <u>Metaphor creates unspoken comparisons without using words such as “like” or “as.”</u> Metaphor asserts that two things are identical instead of just similar. This can be used in writing in order to state abstract truths through the use of specific images or concepts.

Examples:

Laughter is the best medicine.
There is a weight on my shoulder.
No man is an island.
Your argument is a slippery slope.
He is just a late bloomer.

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>
