1
You know what?
2
I'm as excited as a dog fetching a ball, okay?
3
In the water, alright?
4
Because we are going to learn about similes and metaphors in this video.
5
Similes and metaphors.
6
Similes and metaphors are creative ways to make comparisons.
7
Doesn't that sound cool?
8
By the end of this video, you'll know similes and metaphors so well, you'll be able to make some yourself.
9
So let's hop to it!
10
Haha!
11
Starting with similes.
12
Similes!
13
First, what are similes?
14
Hmm...
15
What are similes?
16
Well, similes are actually a way of comparing things.
17
We compare things all of the time.
18
Look at this comparison.
19
The baby slept like a kitten.
20
The baby slept like a kitten.
21
We're comparing the baby to a kitten.
22
The baby is sleeping sweetly just like kittens do.
23
Now look at this comparison.
24
They were as quiet as mice.
25
They were as quiet as mice.
26
We're comparing these two people to mice because just like mice, they were super quiet.
27
Okay, let's look at both of these comparisons again.
28
The baby slept like a kitten.
29
They were as quiet as mice.
30
Want to know something interesting about these comparisons?
31
They are similes.
32
That's right, they are similes.
33
That's because similes are comparisons that use the words like or as.
34
Look at this sentence.
35
Learning is as easy as pie.
36
Wow, learning is being compared to having pie.
37
Easy as pie is a very common simile that means easy.
38
Just like it's easy to eat pie in this sentence, learning is as easy as pie.
39
It's easy to learn.
40
Learning is as easy as pie this is a simile
41
because it is a comparison using the word as similes are a way of comparing things using the words like or as
42
look at this simile the strawberries are red like roses the strawberries are red like roses we know
43
that this is a simile because it is a comparison
44
and notice the word like the word like means
45
if it's a comparison that it is a simile the strawberries are being compared to roses
46
and what do the strawberries have in common with the roses
47
yeah they're both red the strawberries are red like roses this is is a simile.
48
Similes are easy to spot.
49
A simile is a comparison and you're looking for one of two words.
50
You're hunting for the word like or as.
51
If the comparison uses either of these words, you know it's a simile.
52
And what's cool is, now you can use the word like or the word as,
53
in your comparisons to make your very own similes.
54
Isn't that awesome?
55
Hey, great job learning about similes!
56
That was super cool!
57
Similes are so fun, right?
58
Well, there's another kind of comparison that's a lot like similes that we're gonna learn about next, but they have a little twist.
59
Next, we're learning about something called metaphors.
60
Metaphors.
61
Just like similes, metaphors are a kind of comparison.
62
You know how similes compare using the words like or as?
63
Well, metaphors are unique because they compare things without using the words like or as.
64
And we're gonna look at some examples.
65
At first, they're going to look a little bit weird, but then you'll get the hang of it and you'll see how fun they are to use.
66
Here's an example.
67
Ben was a cheetah at the race today.
68
Ben was a cheetah at the race today.
69
We are comparing in this sentence Ben to a cheetah
70
because he went so fast and cheetahs are the fastest land animals in the world.
71
So we're comparing Ben to a cheetah.
72
It's a metaphor because we're making this comparison without using the words like or as.
73
Metaphors can sound silly.
74
That's because in our example, Ben is not really a cheetah, even though we said Ben was a cheetah at the race today.
75
It's a way of comparing that makes it sound like there's no difference between them at all.
76
Let's look at our metaphor again.
77
Ben was a cheetah at the race today is a metaphor.
78
It's comparing Ben to the cheetah and it's not using the words like or as.
79
Okay, let's pretend we did use the word like or as.
80
What if our example was, Ben was like a cheetah at the race today.
81
That makes it a different type of comparison called a simile.
82
A simile.
83
A simile is different than a metaphor because a simile makes a comparison using the words like or as.
84
Remember, metaphors are comparisons that do not use like or as.
85
Metaphors.
86
Metaphors are comparisons that do not use like or as.
87
Look at this example.
88
The snow was a white blanket on the ground.
89
The snow was a white blanket on the ground.
90
In this metaphor, we are comparing the snow to a blanket.
91
Notice you don't see the word like or as.
92
This is definitely a metaphor because it's a comparison that is not using the word like or as.
93
Let's think back to our examples.
94
The first one, Ben, is compared to a cheetah and he is called a cheetah.
95
The comparison doesn't use the word like or as, so that was a metaphor, a metaphor speaking to how fast Ben was running.
96
In our second example, the snow was compared to a blanket.
97
The metaphor said that the snow was a blanket on the ground.
98
That's a comparison that is not using the word like or as.
99
This second metaphor speaks to the appearance of the snow on the ground.
100
Metaphors.
101
A metaphor is a comparison that does not use the words like or as.
102
Look at this example.
103
The stars are jewels in the sky.
104
The stars are jewels in the sky.
105
It's a metaphor because it's comparing the stars to jewels without using the words like or as.
106
The stars sparkle and jewels sparkle.
107
The stars are jewels in the sky.
108
It's a metaphor.
109
Metaphors are comparisons that don't use the words like or as.
110
And you know what?
111
You did it!
112
You learned about similes and metaphors.
113
two really cool ways of Comparing things the next time you compare things
114
Maybe you'll use a simile and use the words like
115
or as or maybe you'll use a metaphor
116
and Compare without using the words like
117
or as either way It's fun to use creative language to compare things
118
and Now you know what those comparisons are called Whoa,
119

|---|---|
| סביל (Passive voice) be + past participle — הדגש הוא על מה שקורה, לא על מי שעושה את הפעולה | being compared · is compared · was compared |

| עתיד עם “going to” be going to + verb — תכנון לעתיד או משהו שנראה שעומד לקרות | are going to learn · gonna learn · gonna look |

- /r/ — הלשון לא נוגעת בשום מקום, לא ה-“ר” הגרונית: strawberry /ˈstɹɔˌbɛɹi/, congratulations /kənˌɡɹæt͡ʃəˈleɪʃ(ə)nz/, pretend /pɹəˈtɛnd/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/, patron /ˈpeɪ.tɹən/

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
