Personification

Personification

Personification is the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

Example: As the leaf diving off the branch of a tree.

The purpose of this figurative language is to bring inanimate things to life to better explain them. Writers often use personification to make their writing more vivid and to have the reader understand the object or animal in a better way.

Here are 5 good examples of personification

1.Lightning danced across the sky.

2.The wind howled in the night.

3.The car complained as the key was roughly turned in its ignition.

4.Jackson heard the last piece of pie calling his name.

5.My alarm clock yells at me to get out of bed every morning.
