Detailed explanation-1: -Most generally, figurative language refers to language that is not literal: it suggests a comparison to something else, so that one thing is seen in terms of another. For example, the phrase fierce tears (the personification of tears) is figurative, since tears cannot really act in a fierce way, as people can.
Detailed explanation-2: -Figurative language also is used to link two ideas with the goal of influencing an audience to see a connection even if one does not actually exist. Writers of prose and poetry use figurative language to elicit emotion, help readers form mental images and draw readers into the work.
Detailed explanation-3: -Figurative language in ‘’The Road Not Taken” is the main way Robert Frost builds meaning. The road in the poem is a metaphor for life, and the fork in the road is a metaphor for choices that people must make.
Detailed explanation-4: -Figurative language compares things in order to give them more detail. We use figurative language to help the reader better understand what we are trying to describe.
