这个辞格在汉语和英语修辞里有着共同
的特点,那就是明显地打比方,在本体
和喻体之间都出现显而易见的喻词,如: 汉语里的 “像”、“好像”、 “比如”、

修辞与翻译
常用英汉修辞手段:simile明喻; metaphor 暗喻; metonymy转喻/借代; synecdoche 提喻;personification拟人; hyperbole夸张; antithesis对偶; pun 双关; irony反语; euphemism委婉; circumlocution 迂回climax渐进; parallelism平行; onomatopoeia 拟声; aposiopesis 跳脱;rhetorical question 设问
