ericch Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I'm trying to wright but i need help with similes and metaphors. I know what they are and all but I'm not very good. Does anyone have any sites where they would put up metaphors/similes. Or do any of you have good ones. I know I'm supposed to think of them myself but I need help at first to start, just some examples. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkie Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I hope this helps I use this with my students: Simile: compares 2 different things using "like" or "as" Metaphor: compares 2 different things without using "like" or "as" Examples of Similes: Our football team's running back is as fast as a cheetah. The ocean's waves were as loud as a roaring lion. Examples of Metaphors: My puppy's ears are velvet. I was so hot that my mouth was a desert. Also, on the internet if you put up figurative language you will find some similes and metaphors. Good LUck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
