What is Analogy??

An analogy is a comparison between two different things so you can point out something about how they are similar. The comparison often is done point by point.

Here are some more specific example of analogy:

1. glove is to hand as monitor is to computer
2. surfs are to a king as earth is to the sun
3. furs were to North American aboriginals as credit is to a shopper

My Reflection

On this week, En. Razibedu gave the lecture about the exploration on analogy metaphor. He taught us how to solve a problem by using different of solution. All those solution must be very creative and special based on the random words or objects that are given by lecturer.It is quite fun to having the lesson of this. At the end of the class, i would be able to differentiate the meaning and application of analogy and metaphor. Here are the exercise which is given by the lecturer that i have done during the class.
