This is true.

Personification is a form of figurative language in which an abiotic factor is endowed human qualities. An example of personification would be the following sentence:

“The sad house sighed on the rainy day.”

This sentence shows personification because a house cannot experience human emotions and cannot physically sigh. If this were possible, the world would be more chaotic as a response to how environmentally challenged it is.
