Question

What is the difference between personification and a metaphor!

Answer 1

Personification is giving a person like characteristics to a nonhuman. Metaphor is a word or phase to an action or object that is not literally applicable.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Personification is a form of metaphor, a comparison that does not claim an object or action is "like" another object or action, but that is literally the same object or action, but with the added caveat that the object being described is not human, but being described as human.
