• Here are some examples of figurative language:<br />

– The snow on the lawn was like frosting on a cake.<br />

– The snow on the lawn was a thick, white frosting.<br />

– The snow tucked a white blanket over the lawn.<br />

– The snow on the lawn was piled in mountain-high<br />

drifts.<br />

– The first two sentences help us see the snow as white frosting.<br />

– The third sentence creates the sense of the snow placing a white<br />

blanket on the lawn,<br />

– and the last sentence makes us see lots of snow in high drifts.
