A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly compares two things without using "like" or "as." Example: "Her heart is a stone."
A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using "like" or "as." Example: "He eats like a pig."
An author would use figurative language in a text to add depth, evoke emotions, create vivid imagery, make a point in a memorable way, or engage the reader's imagination.
