Last week, Sharifah Nur Antasha spoke about Juxtaposition again. Another part of it that is. It was rather interesting to see many contrast examples that she has shown us in the class. She also thought us the meanings of Simile and Metaphore. I think these two words are very important in our life. We are constantly using it every now and then.
Simile is a figure speech in which two fundamentally unlike things are explicitly compared, usually in a phrase introduced by like or as.
An example is like, your lips are red like roses. or, your fast as a cheetah.
Metaphore however is a figure speech in which an implied comparison is made between two unlike things that actually have something in common. But does not use words "like" or "as".
An example is, love is a rose.
Besides that, she also mention what oxymoron is. It is an expression with contradictory words. This could also lead to dissonance which means conflict of right and left brain.
