Literal language means exactly what it says, while figurative language uses similes, metaphors, hyperbole, and personification to describe something often through comparison with something different.

Figurative language is used for expressions and figures of speech. An example would be "It's raining cats and dogs." Literal language is used more for formal language. An example would be "It's raining very hard."

Katena32 [7]

Dear _______,

  I understand that while you may not be too inclined to use your resources to buy more current, relevant, popular, or even grammatically correct books for your bookstore, because you believe that there are higher priorities seeking your attention much more, but your bookstore has begun stocking only books that are _______ [ list cons ], and for a shop that should specialize in literature, this is not acceptable. Please replace or add new books to your collection, books that are ______[list what you want] -- we have children in our community, children who might grow up reading these books and not develop the minds, the imagination, that they could have had. What's more, if some of your books are in any way discriminating against something or someone, they might grow up with the wrong morals and ideas! Please do something about this issue, <em>or I may have to take this up with the ______ board, the mayor, or a supervisor </em>[you can delete this if it doesn't apply].

Many thanks,

_______(Your Name)

Project on topic snake poem of 10 class c.bse pics
zalisa [80]

                                                      Snake

Faster than light

Colors of green

Striking those who dare get to close

 

Slithering towards their next meal

Executing with its deadly toxins

Sneaking between rocks

Carrying its prey in their deadly hold

 

Swerving away from any danger

Making it home with a jaw full of rodent

Being greeted by their family


(I don't know if this is what your asking for but I saw snake poem so I went for it.)
