Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Simile has to do with comparison of two things by using the word as or like.

On the other hand, metaphor is an implied comparison without the use of the word as or like. It involves creating a direct similarity between two words or things.
