A simile is a comparison of two things or objects either using “like” or “as”. For example, “brave as a lion” and “red like a ross”

a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., as brave as a lion, crazy like a fox ). (Google definition, not mine)
