Answer:
1Figurative language is when you describe something by comparing it to something else. The words or phrases that are used don't have a literal meaning. It uses metaphors, allusions, similes, hyperboles and other examples to help describe the object you are talking about.
2.While both similes and metaphors are used to make comparisons, the difference between similes and metaphors comes down to a word. Similes use the words like or as to compare things—“Life is like a box of chocolates.” In contrast, metaphors directly state a comparison—“Love is a battlefield.”
