Sagot :

Answer:

Simile

Explanation:

Metaphors and similes are figures of speech that use comparisons to describe an action, a situation, something or someone. Their difference is that while similes uses the words “as” or “like” to compare, metaphors do not use them, and instead, they directly assert that one element is similar or equal to another element.

“Geoff felt like he had just climbed Mount Everest” is an example of a simile because it compares how Geoff felt to something else while using the word “like.”
