Once you understand what is counts as a simile and what counts as a metaphor it would become more easier.

A simile is a comparison of at least two things using the words "like" or "as".

For example, the usage of a simile can include:

<em>Tom is </em><em>like</em><em> a mountain goat, leaping from one rock to another</em>.

Note the comparison of Tom to a mountain goat, and the usage of "like", or being similar too.

Another example can be:

<em>James was </em><em>as</em><em> brave </em><em>as</em><em> a lion, strong </em><em>as </em><em>a bear, leapt like a gazelle, and </em><em>as </em><em>smart as Einstein.</em>

Note the comparison of James to many different animals as well as a famous person.

The next thing that you should be learning is Metaphor, which is kind of related to similes.

Metaphors is a comparison, but without using the words "like" or "as"

For example, the usage of a metaphor can include:

<em>Her long hair flowed down like a river</em>.

While "like" or "as" was not used, her hair was compared to a river.

When you understand this concept it would be very very useful, especially when writing essays. Most of the time you may need to compare things, such as products, ideas/beliefs, and even different civilizations within a time period (specifically in history class). Understanding how to use similes & metaphors can help enhance your writing.

Tanners, carpenters, bakers, and nearly all other types of tradesmen had guilds by the year 1200. By the 1200s, the Christians had established three kingdoms in the medieval europe : Aragon on the Mediterranean coast, Castile in the middle, and Portugal in the west. But then catastrophe struck in the 1300s. The Black Death, a horrific pandemic, ravaged Europe and Asia.

<h3>How was Medieval Europe?</h3>

The Middle Ages, often known as the medieval period, in the history of Europe roughly extended from the fifth to the late fifteenth century, similar to the post-classical period of world history. The Renaissance and the Age of Discovery came after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The Middle Ages comprise the three standard eras of Western history: classical antiquity, the medieval era, and the modern era. Within the medieval era, there were three separate time periods: the Early, High, and Late Middle Ages.
