Here are some examples of figures of speech:
* Metaphor: A comparison between two unlike things without using "like" or "as" (e.g., "He is a lion in battle").
* Simile: A comparison between two unlike things using "like" or "as" (e.g., "He is as strong as a lion").
* Personification: Giving human qualities to inanimate objects or animals (e.g., "The wind whispered secrets").
* Hyperbole: An exaggeration (e.g., "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse").
* Understatement: A statement that makes something seem less important than it is (e.g., "The test was a little challenging").
* Irony: A contrast between what is said and what is meant (e.g., "It's a beautiful day for a fire," said during a rainstorm).
