I can’t exactly answer this since I do not have the text. However, figurative language is saying something that is not literal. Most common type of figurative language is metaphors or similes.

simile ex: “She’s as happy as a clam.”
similes always have the words “like” or “as” in them

metaphor ex: “This room is an ice cube!”
hence the not so literal meaning

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Brutus feels guilty about assassinating  Julius Caesar.  - Internal conflict with oneself

Antony and Brutus argue over money.  - External conflict with a character

The commoners are angry about the power  of the government . - External conflict with society

Explanation:

The given question refers to <em>The Tragedy of Julius Caesar</em> - a historical play and tragedy written by William Shakespeare.

As we can see, there are several types of conflict in this play. An example of an internal conflict is Brutus feeling guilty about assassinating Ceasar. He killed Ceasar, and now he is feeling guilty about something he has done. He is battling his own feelings.

An example of an external conflict with another character is Brutus and Antony arguing over money. An external conflict is a struggle between the main character and some outside force (e.g. another character or the society). Similarly, commoners being angry about the power of the government is an example of an external conflict with society.
