1. simile
2. SimileA simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two different things, usually by employing the words "like" or "as". Unlike a metaphor, a simile can be as precise as the user needs it to be, to explicitly predicate a single feature of a target or to vaguely predicate an under-determined and open-ended body of features.
