Imagine trying to describe something new without using words you already know. That’s where metaphors come in! A metaphor is like a shortcut, it uses familiar ideas to explain something new or complicated. For example, we might say someone is ‘a fireball’ when they're very energetic. It helps people understand things faster and more funnily.
Examples
- Your friend is a ‘butterfly’ because they are always moving around.
- You say your teacher’s voice is like a ‘lion’s roar’ because it's very loud and powerful.
