Jawaban dan Penjelasan

Berikut ini adalah pilihan jawaban terbaik dari pertanyaan diatas.

FIGURE OF SPEECH

None of your options is correct.

I ate sandwich that was bigger than a train (hyperbole)

My mother is a rock for all of us. (metaphor)

EXPLANATION

(1) Personification

A figure of speech in which the inanimate objects, things, animals are connected with the living qualities, the human traits or they have an ability like the human does.

Example

The sea wind touched my skin.

(Angin laut menyentuh kulitku)

(2) Metaphor

An implicit simile, the hidden comparison between two distinct things. The equation of two unrelated things is defined based on some characteristics. In metaphor, the connecting words "like", "as" are omitted.

Example

My mother is a rock for all of us.

(Mamaku adalah karang bagi kami semua)

➡ A mother and the rock are two distinct things. But, here, my mother's characteristics are defined based on the rock's characteristics (strong, patient).

(3) Hyperbole

An exaggerative statement for emphasis.

In Bahasa, we assume it "lebay."

Example

I ate sandwich that was bigger than a train

(Aku makan sandwich yang mana lebih besar dari kereta)

➡ Hyperbole illogically describes something. It makes something seem larger than it actually is. This exaggeration is used to reveal the emotion or emphasize the point.
