Personification is the application of human attributes to non-living things. For example, many people personify their vehicles, as in the following statement about a car, 'She is temperamental in the morning.'

Can you give examples of personifiction?

Personification is used to give objects, or abstract ideas, human traits or qualities, such as emotion, desires, speech, sensation or physical gesture.For example:* The stars smiled sadly over the moonlit night - here personification is used to give the objects (stars) both gesture and emotion, both trait that stars are not capable of, but humans are. * Window really loves to crash - here windows has been given the human emotion of love, even though, as a programme, it is quite incapable of feelings. * The flowers suffered from the heat - Although heat came make flowers wilt, suffering is again a human trait. * The teddy bear enjoyed the little girls company - teddy bears are inanimate objects and are incapable of emotion, so to say he was enjoying something would be personification.
