What is metaphor mean?

English
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A metaphor States something unreal/idiotic as if it were true.

Explanation:

Okay! Hey! So Just wanted to say that a Metaphor is much often mixed up with a SIMILE!!! Don't let it fool you!

Simile:

Uses "Like" or "As"

Example:

Her teeth were as white as pearls.

Metaphor:

States something idiotic like it is true and real.

Example:

Her teeth were white pearls.

(Of course, her teeth aren't really pearls, which makes this sentence a metaphor!)
