Correct answer: "Personification gives human traits to non-human things briefly, anthropomorphism makes them fully human-like characters."

Brief explanation: Personification is a figurative device that attributes human qualities to nonhuman things (e.g., "The wind whispered"). Anthropomorphism treats animals/objects as fully human-like characters with thoughts, speech, and agency (e.g., talking animals in a fable).
