Figurative Language

Figurative language is deducing the meaning of what a person said.

There's 5 different figurative languages. 

A simile is comparing 2 things by using "like" or "as".

A metaphor is comparing 2 things without using "like" or "as".

A personification is giving human traits to objects and ideas. 

A hyperbole is exaggerating to show strong feelings or ideas.

A understatement is expressing with less strength than expected (the opposite of hyperbole).
