Question
Identify the object or animal being personified and what they are doing makes it a personification.
The clouds danced across the sky.
- Across
- Clouds danced
- Across the sky
Hint:
The most common example of personification is when we describe the wind as blowing or the sun is shining.
The correct answer is: Clouds danced
Personification is a type of figurative language in which non-human things are described as having human attributes, as in the sentence. 'The clouds danced across the sky', here 'the cloud' is a non-living object but danced, just like a person. It is personification because the cloud is given human quality.
