LIKE thunder,gonna shake the ground This a Simile because it is comparing two things with like or as.Likethunder, gonna shake the ground.If you heard, you could hear LIKE inthe two verses.She is comparing her loud voice, to the loud thunder.It isdefinetly not a metaphor.Heres a hint: a Metaphor is totaly differentfrom a Simile. Metaphor Cause I am a champion and youre gonna hear me ROAR
Louder, louder than a lion This a Metaphor. It is because it is NOT , I repeat, NOT comparing two things with LIKE or AS.A Metaphor is actually still comparing twothings.. WITHOUT, LIKE or AS. If you heard LIKE or AS, thatis not correct, plus i already have a Simile. So, I really dont understandthat.You can hear louder than a lion. She is comparing her roar to a lionsroar WITHOUT LIKE or AS. Onomatopoeia {ona-mona-peia}
ROAR,oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh This is an Onomatopoeia. It is an Onomonatopoeia because it has OH init. Oh is a word, but sound at the same time.It is used in a lot ofbooks too. You can use Oh in a lot of WAYS. Such as Oh, I must haveforgotten all about my pop song project!!!. Or in songs, like this oneKaty Perry: ROAR. Assonance I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
dancing through the fire This is an Assonance. Tiger, fighter, and fire all rhyme. An Assonance is whenvowel sounds inside a word repeat. The e in er is a vowel SOUND. Rememberthat. Even know, fire has e at the END. BUT its the vowel SOUND. Notletter. SOUND. So its totally an Assonance. P.S. The I sound goes with ittoo. ROAR!!!!!!!!!!
