Figurative language

What is Figurative language?



Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from the conventional order and meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it.


Ways to Use Figurative Language in Writing

  1. metaphor compares two things by suggesting that one thing is another: "The United States is a melting pot."
  2. A simile compares two things by saying that one thing is like another: "My love is like a red, red rose."
  3. Hyperbole is a form of exaggeration: "I would die without you."

What the term "misunderstanding" in the present essay of Figurative language depicts its meaning?



In figurative languages misunderstanding often occurs when poet wants to conveys his or her message through words which have some philosophy in nature and which in daily life we possibly cannot directly connect to it.
