How can I make this sentence “ Whenever I smell food I get hungry as a tiger” into a metaphor

Answer: I am a tiger, hungry whenever I smell food.

Step-by-step explanation:

because metaphors are not similes, they do not compare using "like" or "such as". they actually place the object into focus. in this case, the focus is the tiger, not merely the attributes of the tiger.

hope this helped!

Answer:

example 1: When I am hungry and smell food, I am a tiger.

example 2: I am a tiger when I am hungry and smell food

Both of these sentences are metaphors

Step-by-step explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that doesn't use LIKE or AS, so with this sentence, like or as is included, making this sentence a simile. To convert it to a metaphor you would get rid of "as".

Let me know if you need any other help:)
