metonymy, metaphor and simile

Good night, friends!)

i had not access to the internet , that is why i am going to send my blog about metonymy just now...

Last week we talked about metonymy. And from past lessons we got information about metaphor and simile. I drew up a table that will help you visualize the differences and common features of these figures of speech:

Both metonymy and metaphor involve the substitution of one term for another. In metaphor, this substitution is based on some specific analogy between two things, wheares in metonymy the substitution is based on  some understood association or contiguity.

I found one interesting and useful video about metonymy and synecdoche and advise you to watch it here:
