Answer: alliteration Is not the answer since its repetition of initial consonant sounds. For example, “the star student athlete stammered a grateful reply for the generous award she received” uses alliteration with the repetition of the “st” sound .
Metaphor is the figure of speech, word or phrase used to describe someone or something that does not make literal sense.
Simile is not the answer figure of speech, comparison of two different things using “like” or “as”
So i guess that the answer is Metaphor
