Question

which figure of speech uses like or as in its comparison?
○ metaphor
○ personification
● simile
○ exaggeration

Explanation:

• A metaphor makes a direct comparison without "like" or "as".
• Personification gives human traits to non-humans, no such comparison words.
• A simile is defined as a comparison using "like" or "as".
• Exaggeration (hyperbole) overstates for effect, no such comparison structure.

Answer:

simile
