    Daryll Anne Lagtapon
    This document discusses three types of figurative language: simile, metaphor, and personification. Simile explicitly compares two things using "like" or "as." Metaphor implicitly compares two things without using "like" or "as." Personification gives human traits to non-human or inanimate objects. Examples are provided for each type.
