Metaphor


Definition

Figure of speech that compares something to something else that doesn't use words: like same, etc.

Example

The stars on the sky at night are the decoration of the christmas tree.

Significance

We need to know this type comparison because some poems like Haiku uses 5,7,5 sounds and the work like adds an extra sound that we don't need. If we could use this, the/ writing will become better.
