:: JUXTAPOSITION ll ::

My understanding from this lesson is,

Juxtaposition of analogy can be divided into two, which is : Metaphor and Similies.

Metaphor is a figure of speech.

The example of metaphor statement and similies statement is,

Metaphor : Life is a box of chocolate, you will never know what you will get!

Similies : Life is like a maze in which you try to avoid the exit.

From the two examples above, the differences between them is, metaphor statement never add 'like' or 'as', but similies statement.

In the analogy itself, it has logical analogies and affective analogies.

From the fifth slide of "Lesson 5.4 Juxtaposition" powerpoint,

Logical analogies is analogies, which use similarities in the design or function to connect back the subject. For example, the whale and submarine, both of them can dive into the depth of the sea, and yet they still need to surface for air.

Affective analogies is the emotional resemblance. For example, he is like a pig ( because he is lazy ), she is like an ant ( because she is hardworking ).

Before end, i wish to show a picture, u might guess what kind of analogy they have applied on it. A train and a woman, as shown in the photo, how your brain works on this?


Well, what you think on this picture is what i think

and,

this is a picture of "Metaphor". ( please highlight to see the answer :)
