What is Figurative Language? Any language that is NOT used in a literal (meaning exactly what it says) way A way of saying one thing and meaning another Examples: That ball sat in the outfield. Jimmy ran like a cheetah to first base. If looked at literally, the statements don’t make sense at all.

Why use Figurative Language? It’s a rich, strong, and vivid way to express meaning We are able to say much more in fewer words.

Example “My love is like a red, red rose” (Robert Burns) He is saying is love is beautiful, soft, and fragrant. The rose is red, the color of passion and love. This adds another dimension. The rose also has thorns, which says that there’s a potential danger in loving her. She may hurt him. The poet has squeezed many ideas into a single line.

Caution about Figurative Language While it is useful, it can be overdone. When a figure of speech is used over and over again, it loses its freshness and originality and becomes a cliché, a stale and overused expression. Pretty as a picture Quiet as a mouse Laughter is the best medicine Every cloud has a silver lining.

Metaphors and Similes Used to compare things that are not usually seen as similar. Metaphors IMPLY the comparison Similes STATE the comparison directly Comparison of unlike things

Let’s look at an example Metaphor (IMPLY) Simile (STATE) My anger roared and devoured everything it encountered; its ferociousness made it unconquerable. Its teeth glared and shined when facing any foe. Not saying it was a literal lion, but that it was roaring and unconquerable; teeth glaring and hard to deal with. Comparison is not directly stated; rather it is implied or suggested You identify the lion with the anger. “My anger was like a ferocious lion!” Still not literal – not really like a lion.

Metaphors and Similes They have literal terms and figurative terms The literal term is what we are comparing to something else. It’s what’s real; it means what it is. For example, “That test was a bear!” (Literal term is test) The figurative term is what is being compared to the literal term. For example, “That test was a bear!” (Figurative term is bear)

Try it Out! Read the following sentences and determine a) metaphor or simile; b) literal term c) figurative term I got a flood of mail yesterday. Alice sang like a crow. Jeff was taller than the Empire State Building. The shoes cost a king’s ransom.

Figurative Language in Action Read and Think: Write About It: I was seven, I lay in the car watching palm trees swirl a sickening pattern past the glass. My stomach was a melon split wide inside my skin. -- Naomi Shihab Nye, “Making a Fist,” Words Under the Words: Selected Poems What is the metaphor in this poem? What is literal term? What is the figurative term? What does the metaphor imply? How would the meaning and impact of these lines change if Nye said simply, My stomach really hurt?

ATSS – further discussion Identify examples of figurative language (metaphors, similes, personification, hyperbole, imagery, etc.) in chaps. 1-3. Explain what is suggested by the use of those elements.

Photo Analysis - practice Let’s view another photograph. You and your group should work together to analyze it using the OPTIC strategy. Then, your group should attempt to write an interpretation of the photograph using the instructions on your OPTIC handout.
