Fat as a tick
That person IS a FAT slob. Metaphors use IS and ARE.
It is a simile because it compares two things by using "like" or "as." If we said "Lauren is a pig.", that would be a metaphor because we would not be using "like" or "as" in our comparison.
you are fat as a cow
no..drama queen is not a metaphor
He is a lion.He's a fat cow.
No. One word does not make a metaphor. "Bob is groaning" would be the closest you could get, but that is a statement, not a metaphor.
A metaphor for Christmas would be: "Christmas was a beautiful as spring day!"
No. But this would be: Sally was a fat pig. This is a simile: Sally was fat as a pig A metaphor states "X is Y" when X is not actually Y but can be compared to it. A simile states "X is like Y" "Sally was getting chubby" isn't either. I feel sorry for poor Sally, though. But at least she didn't become a linguist, and have to deal with these nuisances all day.
None. "As _____ as a ______" is a metaphor. The proper metaphor would be "as fresh as a daisy."
"The fat is in the fire!" This means that an action or a situation has begun that can't be (easily) halted. The action or situation is usually a negative one.
Well, imagine fat as a gentle cloud floating in the sky, bringing softness and warmth to everything it touches. Just like how a cloud provides nourishment to the earth, fat provides energy and protection to our bodies. Embrace fat like you would a fluffy cloud, knowing it plays an important role in keeping you healthy and strong.
The meaning of the text is obtained by an appreciation of the analogy of the metaphor.
