Decide whether the following is a simile, metaphor, or neither. His lips were bright red. simile metaphor neither



Answer :

Its neither ; simile uses the words like or as which it doesn't, and metaphor compares. It doesn't compare anything, so its neither.

Answer: C) neither.

Explanation: A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as." A metaphor is also a comparison, but it is direct (without using the words "like" or "as"). The given sentence isn't a simile nor a metaphor, because it isn't comparing anything, it is just describing the lips by saying that they are bright red.
