What is a metaphor?

This content has been automatically translated from Ukrainian.
Metaphor is a rhetorical device through which one object, concept, or idea is compared to another based on shared characteristics. Metaphor creates imagery and expressiveness in language, helping us better understand and visualize certain ideas.
In a metaphor, it is directly stated that one thing is another. For example, the phrase "Life is a journey" is a metaphor. Here, "life" is compared to "journey" to emphasize its dynamism, uncertainty, and constant change.
