Learning Objective
I can analyze how authors use rhetoric to convey their message.
- 1
Metaphors are a way to talk about one thing by describing something else, using imagination and the senses.
- 2
A simile is a type of metaphor that uses the words 'like' or 'as' to make a comparison, while metaphors let you feel things directly.
- 3
Metaphors aren't puzzles to convey hidden meanings; instead, they allow you to feel and know something differently, giving words a way to go beyond their own meaning.
