In "Lamb to the Slaughter" by Roald Dahl, a simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things using the words "like" or "as." An example of a simile in the story is when Mary Maloney's laughter is described as "a trill." This comparison helps to convey the sound and quality of her laughter in a vivid and expressive way. Similes are used throughout the story to enhance the reader's understanding and create imagery.
