However, there are several instances of figurative language in Anne Frank's diary, including metaphors, which are implied comparisons without using "like" or "as."
Here are some examples:
* "The world is a stage and we are all actors." This is a metaphor that compares life to a play, implying that everyone has a role to play.
* "Hope is a fragile thing, easily crushed." This is a metaphor that compares hope to a delicate object, highlighting its vulnerability.
* "I feel like a bird in a cage." This is a simile that compares Anne's feelings of confinement to a bird trapped in a cage.
While similes are not the dominant figurative language used in the diary, Anne Frank's writing is rich in imagery and metaphors that help her readers understand her feelings and experiences.
