Simile: A simile is a way to explain what something looks like or sounds like: He was as smart as than a dolphin. The plane was as big as a whale. The hyena sounded as if it was laughing at someone.
Metaphor: a figure of speech to connect two things that don't go together without using 'like' or 'as':
his car was a shiny white pearl. The plane was a small bird. The fish was a skewer.
Idiom: an expression or phrase comparing two or more words: "Stop talking to me, you driving me crazy!" "your going to run me off going to give me a heart attack if you keep doing this" "if we play the right cards, we could hit the jackpot"
Alliteration: The tree tried to tie the rope to a tree branch.
