__**Metaphors**__

**Metaphors are a way to compare to by saying that one thing is another thing. For example, we say somebody is a fool. In** **the past in Europe, a fool was a person who entertained the king or queen by doing silly things. The fool was a kind of clown. He often did crazy or stupid things to make people laugh. So when we call somebody a fool we really mean that he or she is doing something silly or stupid. We don’t really mean that they are somebody who entertains the king or queen. We are using a metaphor.** **What do we mean when we say these things:**

**When we say someone is a pig we really mean that.** **They eat to much food and it gets everywhere.** **When we call someone an angel we really mean that.** **They are really nice and are very polite.** **If we say someone is a giant we really mean that.** **They are really tall.** **When we call a man an ogre or a woman a witch we really mean.** **They are really ugly.** **When somebody plays cards and we call them a shark, we really mean that.** **They are really sneaky.** **If we say that somebody is a volcano ready to explode, we really mean that.** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">**They are really angry.** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">**When we say somebody is bright we mean that.** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">**They are smart.**
