Entry#4: Figures of speech (chapter 1)


Metaphor– understand one thing in term of another. A metaphor didn't use the linking word but compare directly.

Example:
The moon is a prostitute.

Significance - using metaphor helps the author to state the point in a deeper meaning, and often makes it to a more emotional level. It also enhances your thought in understanding the poem.
