What is the difference between a simile and a metaphor

English
1 answer:
marin [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

How strongly two things are being compared

Explanation:

Both simile and metaphor are figures of speech used to compare two different, unrelated, things that share some kind of quality. However, there is a difference. The simile uses words <em>like </em>and <em>as</em>, while the metaphor omits them, stating that something is something else. This is why we can say that the metaphor is a stronger type of comparison.

What does this quote mean <br> you can heara wolf howl a bird sing but you cant hear a heart break
Georgia [21]

Hi there! I'm glad I was able to help you!

"You can hear a wolf howl, a bird sing, but you can't hear a heart break."

This quote is kind of literal.

You can hear a wolf howl, and you can definitely hear a bird sing, but if you accidentally hurt a close friend or family member and they don't want you to know about it, they try to hide it. They might be hiding it because they don't want YOU to feel bad. Hence the "you can't hear a heart break" part of the quote.

I hope this helped you! Leave a comment below if I can assist with anything else! :)
