 FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE
-Figurative language refers to the color we use to amplify our
writing. It takes an ordinary statement and dresses it up in an
evocative frock. . It gently alludes to something without directly
stating it. Figurative language is a way to engage your readers,
ushering them through your writing with a more creative tone.
Although it's often debated how many "types" of figurative
language there are, it's safe to say there are at least five distinct
categories. They are: metaphors, similes, personification, and
hyperbole.

Examples:
1. This coffee shop is an ice box! (Metaphor)
2. She’s drowning in a sea of grief. (Metaphor)
3. She’s happy as a clam. (Simile)
4. I move fast like a cheetah o the Serengeti. (Simile)
5. The sea lashed out in anger at the ships, unwillingly to tolerate
another battle. (Personification)
6. The sky misses the sun at night. (Personification)
7. I’ve told you a million times to clean your room! (Hyperbole)
8. Her head was spinning from all the new information.
(Hyperbole)
9. He has heart of stone. (Metaphor)
10. Opportunity knocked at his door. (Personification)
