1 Answer

6 votes

Answer:

Figurative language is when a writer describes something by comparing it with something else. It is writing that goes from the actual meaning of words at face value to get a special meaning. Non-literal or figurative language refers to words, and groups of words, that change the normal meanings of the words.
