Answer 3

A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly compares two things, suggesting that one thing is another. In the sentence "The wind is a leaping ballerina," the wind is being compared to a ballerina, implying that it is graceful, flexible, and fluid like a dancer. This comparison is a metaphor because it does not use "like" or "as" to make the comparison, as a simile would, but instead equates the wind with a ballerina.
