 An analogy is a comparison of two or more things or ideas which are alike in certain respects and different in other respects. Ex. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which. Ex. Watching the movie was like being in a wild car chase, full of unexpected twists and turns. Analogy

 Analogies are different from similes and metaphors ; they are not figures of speech, but used to create logical arguments. They are often extended and more complex; instead of simply providing comparisons, analogies force the reader to apply the comparisons to find other similarities between the two things being compared. Simile : The main is like a cat. Metaphor : The man is a cat. Analogy : When Johnny sensed he was in danger, his cat-like instincts kicked in and led him to safety. Analogy
