Far from it..... "Life is a stage" is an example of metaphor


What you wrote there should be hyperbole..... Not a literature student anyway

setobaba:
So what she wrote there is metaphor?

Riele:
Metaphor , I guess .

***Ocean of love ***

olaric:
it's an oxymoron


No need to panic or apologize. Hyperbole, which means exaggeration is closer to the meaning of what she wrote up there than metaphor.

Amanofwisdom:
Hyperbole simply means exaggeration so by saying you would drown him in an ocean of love.
You're just exaggerating your expression of love towards to man by the use of drowning.
Ocean itself could be a hyperbole since your love might not be as big as the ocean but you're using the word ocean to exaggerate how big your love is.

Riele:
I love this .

Perfect time to forcefully remove his oxygen mask and drown him in my ocean of love .

Metaphor uses 'as' or 'like' as identifiers. 'Ocean of Love' here is greatly exaggerated as the ocean is known to be vast and covers almost all surfaces or areas of the earth. The proper FOS here is hyperbole.

Goldencheese:
Awww. What love can do!

teabully:
I think personification

setobaba:
Bro the young lady thinks she's right, and I myself wasnt sure... But am certain it's not metaphor more like personification or hyperbole

rexandyke:
Word! Are you a pun Lord? Have any social media account? I like people like you

Liposure:
u are mistaking metaphor 4 simile

Riele:
No !

It's simile that uses identifiers "as" and "like"

Metaphor is a direct comparison

There are adventurous couples out there who prefer to have their wedding on their terms, without the pressures of a normal traditional wedding.

Over the years, we have witnessed dozens of ever-evolving wedding styles that match the personalities of our couples.

Only reaffirming our belief that these days you can really do whatever you want, anywhere you want.
