Figures of speech are rhetorical devices that use words in distinctive ways to achieve special effects. Some common figures of speech are metaphor, simile, personification, and irony. A metaphor is a direct comparison of two unlike things without using "like" or "as". A simile directly compares two things using "like" or "as". Personification gives human qualities to objects or ideas. Irony is when the literal meaning contrasts with the intended meaning. Figures of speech help make writing and conversation more interesting and impactful.
