Show transcript
Figurative language is non-literal language. Examples of methods which are figurative include simile and metaphor.
Using figurative language can help enhance your descriptions as it creates more vivid detail for the reader.
You should avoid using clichéd examples when crafting similes and metaphors. It's better to be original in thought.
One way to avoid clichés is to add additional detail to make it specific to your character.
