bigboybilly:

well this is from google Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics, emotions, and behaviors to animals or other non-human things (including objects, plants, and supernatural beings). Some famous examples of anthropomorphism include Winnie the Pooh, the Little Engine that Could, and Simba from the movie The Lion King.

Acolgrove:

bigboybilly:

No no no

bigboybilly:

it is not Anthropomorphism

bigboybilly:

hello

Acolgrove:

its not?

bigboybilly:

it is simile

Acolgrove:

but simile uses the words like or as

bigboybilly:

Simile it giving man made features to things

russianmafiya:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @bigboybilly Simile it giving man made features to things \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no its definitely not simile

bigboybilly:

like in the sentence how it says '' chuckling when the dog jumped and shook his or her head

bigboybilly:

A simile compares two things so that the thing described is understood more vividly, eg 'The water was as smooth as glass. ... A simile can create a vivid image in the reader's mind, helping to engage and absorb them. GOOGLE

bigboybilly:

This is the correct answer
