The literary element that is a type of figurative language is personification. Personification involves giving human traits or qualities to non-human entities or abstract concepts. The other options—denotation, synonym, and conflict—are not types of figurative language. Denotation refers to the literal meaning of a word, synonyms are words with similar meanings, and conflict refers to a struggle between opposing forces in a story.
