Answer:

Figurative language is the use of descriptive words, phrases and sentences to convey a message that means something else without directly saying it.

Although it's often debated how many types of figurative language there are, it's safe to say there are five main categories. They are: Metaphors, Smiles, Personification, Hyperbole and Symbolism.

Answer: Metaphor

Explanation:

A Metaphor helps describe a character or variable by relating it to another character or Variable that is seemly unrelated to it but bears certain characteristics to it for comparison sake.

It essentially says one thing is another so that the original thing can be understood better.

For example, "every family has a black sheep". It is not saying that every family will have a sheep which is black but rather saying that at least one member of each family behaves differently from the rest.

In the above extract from Toni Cade Bambara's short story "Raymond's Run", Squeaky who is Raymond's sister is using a metaphor to describe her brother's penchant for using the curb as a Circus clown uses a rope high in the air.
