Using figurative language is an effective way of communicating an idea
that is not easily understood because of its abstract nature or
complexity. Although figurative language does not offer a literal

the first idea easier to visualize. Figurative language also is used to
link two ideas with the goal of influencing an audience to see a
connection even if one does not actually exist. Writers of prose and
