Unit Review

There are different types of figurative language. We will discuss exaggeration, personification, simile, and metaphor. Here are some examples of each: 


  LITERAL: The sky was full of clouds.

  EXAGGERATION: There were more clouds than sky today.

  PERSONIFICATION: The sky begged to be free of the clouds.

  SIMILE: The sky was like a bucket full of clouds.

  METAPHOR: The sky was a bucket full of clouds.
These sentences use different ways of expressing the same idea.
