What is the definition of “figurative language”

English
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Figurative language is when a writer describes something by comparing it with something else. It is writing that goes from the actual meaning of words at face value to get a special meaning. Non-literal or figurative language refers to words, and groups of words, that change the normal meanings of the words.

Daniel [21]

The biggest crisis has been in is having a faulty zipper on the day of my aunt's wedding and I was like her main flower girl which meant I would have to stand up next to her, in front of the whole church with a faulty zipper that kept falling down. I actually wasn't calm because I was freaking out and going to my mom and asking her to fix it every minute. I would have probably stopped pulling the zipper harshly next time so that I don't have to be embarrassed
