Types of Figurative Language

Simile A comparison using the words “like” or “as”

Metaphor A direct comparison that does NOT use the words “like” or “as”

Extended Metaphor Example An extended metaphor is a comparison that is continued in a piece of literature for more than a single reference. It might be contained in a few sentences, a paragraph, stanza, or an entire literary piece. An author uses an extended metaphor to build a larger comparison between two things. Example “Bobby Holloway says my imagination is a three-hundred-ring circus. Currently I was in ring two hundred and ninety-nine, with elephants dancing and clowns cart wheeling and tigers leaping through rings of fire. The time had come to step back, leave the main tent, go buy some popcorn and a Coke, bliss out, cool down.” (Dean Koontz, Seize the Night. Bantam, 1999)

Allusion An allusion is a figure of speech that refers to past literature, history, or culture.

Repetition “I Have a Dream” speech Repeating a word or phrase to emphasize it! “I Have a Dream” speech “I have a dream…” “With this faith…” “Let freedom ring..” “Free at last…”

Symbol Something that stands for, or represents, something beyond itself

Vocabulary chide—to scold or criticize despondent—loss of hope/confidence expiration—act of breathing out nominal—small, insignificant recap—retell, summarize resonate—have an effect or impact on requisite—needed or necessary repatriate—return someone to their birth country
