This quote is an example of a metaphor. Explain why. “This whole earth which we inhabit is but a point in space.”
GrogVix [38]
The earth is rather large and not exactly a point in space, the author however is comparing it to a point in space because of how vast space really is.                                                                                                                                                  A metaphor is basically a comparison (Not exactly true) that doesn't use the words like or as... (That's a Simile.)                                                                                                                                                                                                      The earth isn't an actual dot in space. It's big, but because of how big space is, it's compared to a dot...  Hope this helps... :)
