Answer:

Figurative language

Explanation:

Figurative language is a language that uses words that deviate from their literal meaning to represent something and give readers new insights. Simile, metaphor, hyperbole, and personification are types of this language:

  • Similes use comparisons to describe an event, someone, a place, etc., while using the words "as" and "like. For example "My grandmother sings like an angel."
  • Metaphors also use comparison, but without the words "like" nor "as". This figure of speech directly asserts that one element is similar or equal to another element. For example, "She is a summer breeze."
  • Hyperbole is a way of speaking or writing in an exaggerated manner used to emphasize, to add humor or to gain attention on something. It is common to use words or phrases that are obviously false, for example He saw and stretches out a colossal hand to reach the flower.
  • Personification is used when a thing, idea, abstract quality, nature, emotion or event is given human characteristics. For example, "The wind hugged me".
