What is a metaphor ?
Greeley [361]
Hi there!

A metaphor is when you compare something to something else without using "like" or "as", by making the object of the metaphor take on the characteristic of that other thing. Example:

"That person over there is such a pig."

The metaphor in this sentence is comparing the subject "person" to a "pig" without the use of the comparison words "like" or "as".

Which features of the speech do you appreciate most why​

Answer: I have a strong appreciation for those who can connect with an audience, to be able to understand how they would react or feel towards something. A true writer can harness the skill of connection because they once were like the audience themselves, or perhaps still are. As well as connections, i find clarity within the speech very important. Understanding what is being said can have you fully comprehend the words and meanings behind them.

Explanation: Hope this helps out :)
