The writer in Frankenstein describes his one crewman as being "as silent as a Turk." What literary
device is this?
A. Metaphor
B. Irony
C. Personification
D. Simile

Respuesta :

Simile because they use the words “like” or “as” to compare two things

Answer:

d) simile

Explanation:

a metaphor is comparing two things without using "like" or "as"- this sentence uses the word "as"

irony is when something happens that you do not expect and this doesn't apply to this sentence

personification is giving human characteristics to non-human objects however a crewman is a human

the answer is simile because the author is comparing two things (a crewman and a Turk) USING the word "as"
