Have you've ever asked yourself: What is the difference between a funny story and a biography. Words. The choice of words is what makes the reader want to read. Look at the following sentences and tell me which is better:1) It was a rainy day. I was bored, depressed, and wanted to go outside to play like a regular being should, but here I was stuck under this roof reading. I wanted to go outside but it seemed to be raining for forever.2) It was raining cats and dogs today! I wanted to go out side so much. The playing equipment was calling me, the park was longing for me, my friends were beckoning me, but here I was, a dog stuck on a leash. Can't time just fly by like it usually does when I am having a good time?I put in bold all of the text that had figurative language in it. My examples are probably not that good.... I was quickly thinking of an example, but you probably picked example number two as being more engaging.Figurative language should be fun, exciting, and creative. It should be the reason why the paper you are writing has life in the first place (opinion). When you don't want something to be obvious, like saying it is raining hard, you use figurative language to make someone think about the true meaning.
The author's use of figurative language in the line "if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly" emphasizes the idea that unfulfilled dreams lead to a life lacking purpose and vitality. The metaphor of a broken-winged bird conveys a sense of helplessness and loss, suggesting that without the ability to pursue one's aspirations, life becomes stunted and unfulfilled. This imagery powerfully evokes feelings of sadness and despair, highlighting the essential role that dreams play in giving life meaning and direction.
