It causes the reader to feel emotion and helps the author communicate elements of a story. Figurative language also evokes feelings and creates layers of meaning.

Simile (bullet belts): To give an example of something closely relatable so you can picture what the scene looks like.

Figurative language 2: I couldn't identify any type of figurative language.

Figurative language 3 (stunned [bad word]): It means for you, someone else, or something else to look (rude word) as a result of being stunned
