35 metaphor
transference of names based on the associated likeness between two objects, on the similarity of one feature common to two different entities, on possessing one common characteristic, on linguistic semantic nearness, on a common component in their semantic structures."pancake" for the "sun" (round, hot, yellow)
"silver dust" and "sequins" for "stars"
The expressiveness is promoted by the implicit simultaneous presence of images of both objects - the one which is actually named and the one which supplies its own "legal" name, while each one enters a phrase in the complexity of its other characteristics.The wider is the gap between the associated objects the more striking and unexpected - the more expressive - is the metaphor.His voice was a dagger of corroded brass. (S.Lewis)
They walked alone, two continents of experience and feeling, unable to communicate. (W.S.Gilbert)
