Literary Devices and Figures of Speech

The phrase "the whole world became your garden" employs metaphor as its primary figurative language.

This expression evokes a sense of abundance and connection to nature, emphasizing personal growth and exploration.

A critical person is someone who sees only the faults in other people, in many different aspects. It can be like appearance (even of themselves) or habits/characteristics of a person that that critical person finds unappealing. To be a critical person though, would mean you do this alot. Or you just down a situation all the time, finding the things wrong with it. A critcal person would point out "Your clothes don't match and they're too baggy"

Or "Swimming is lame, and only stupid people swim" to a swimmer who has said nothing offensive first Or making a situation unpleasant: "This food is nasty, and it's so hot outside. I don't feel like being with you people" unnecessary and derogetory. There you are. All in all, don't be a critical person, and you're good.

Figurative Language:

Whenever you describe something by comparing it with something else, you are using figurative language. Any language that goes beyond the literal meaning of words in order to furnish new effects or fresh insights into an idea or a subject. The most common figures of speech are simile, metaphor, and alliteration.

Language that goes beyond the ordinary meaning of words. Figurative language is different from literal language in that the former uses all kinds of techniques including metaphor, simile, and so on to get its message across whilst the latter (literal) uses straightforward factual language. Figurative speech is desirable for novel writing because it is more interesting but literal is more appropriate in an official document and in academic writing.

Non-literal or figurative language refers to words, and groups of words, that exaggerate or alter the usual meanings of the component words.
