Generally speaking, figurative sentences are metaphors, that is, grasping the similarities of different things according to association and replacing abstract and difficult things with simple, concrete and vivid things. The so-called "raise (him) things and be clear."
Metaphor is to compare one thing with another according to the similarity between things (the thought object is similar to other things), to concretize the abstract things and to simplify the profound truth (to compare the thought object with other things, that is, to compare one thing or situation with another).
The content of metaphor has three elements: first, the object of thought, that is, the original intention; The second is another thing, figurative; The third is the similarity between the two.
Literally, it is divided into three parts, namely: ontology (figurative things or situations), metaphor (words expressing figurative relations) and metaphor (figurative things or situations). Some dictionaries supplement and explain its composition into four components, namely, ontology, vehicle, metaphor and metaphor. It mainly consists of three parts.
