like or as
You use a simile by comparing two unlike things by using the words 'like' or 'as'. For example: That man is as old as dirt. She screamed like a banshee.
In simile, you use the words like, as. For example: "She is cute as a puppy."In metaphor, it does not use the words like, as.For example: "He is a pig."So to transform a simile to a metaphor, you should not use the words, like, as in the sentence.For example:Simile- I eat like a pig.Metaphor - I am a pig.Hope this helps.
that man
No. If a comparison uses like or as, it becomes a simile.
