Answer 1

Metaphorical language is used

Answer 2

Answer:

Metaphor.

Explanation:

A metaphor is a form of figurative language in which two seemingly unrelated terms are associated in order to create a deeper form of meaning and changing the sense of the terms related. The association is here made directly and opposed to a simile which functions just like a metaphor but indirectly by making use of words such as “like” or “as” (for example: cruel words are like weapons).
