2 is wrong. Please try again.


The following does NOT express a similarity between two realities:

    { 1 } - an analogy.
    { 2 } - a literal common name.
    { 3 } - a metaphor.
    { 4 } - a simile.
    { 5 } - a literal proper name.

All common names refer to shared characteristics between at least two realities, and therefore express a likeness or similarity between them. See page 29.

3 is wrong. Please try again.


The following does NOT express a similarity between two realities:

    { 1 } - an analogy.
    { 2 } - a literal common name.
    { 3 } - a metaphor.
    { 4 } - a simile.
    { 5 } - a literal proper name.

In a metaphor, "a word or phrase literally referring to one kind of object or idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them." See p. 30.

4 is wrong. Please try again.


The following does NOT express a similarity between two realities:

    { 1 } - an analogy.
    { 2 } - a literal common name.
    { 3 } - a metaphor.
    { 4 } - a simile.
    { 5 } - a literal proper name.

A simile makes the similarity between two realities explicit by use the word "like" or "as."
