Just the position!

Juxtaposition (Just the position)!!
Well, the explanation for this has something to do with position.
"Juxta" means beside, near.
According to dictionary.reference.com, juxtaposition means an act or instance of placing close together or side by side.
For a good example, it is like for comparison or contrast.
Some of us think this is an act of conflict between left brain and right brain.

Analogy is divided by 2 different types.

First, metaphor (not using as / like). Metaphor is a of speech concisely expressed by comparing two things, saying that one is the other.

Second, simile (using as / like). Simile is a figure of speech comparing two unlike things, often introduced with the word "like" or "as".

Well, there are two categories of analogies, too!
1. Logical Analogies
Use similarities in design, structure, or function to connect back to the subject.



F117A "Nighthawk"

2. Affective Analogies
Emotional resemblance. For example, using an animal to describe a person's characteristic.

Angry like a tiger

Can you tell me what are the analogies by looking at the pictures?





I want to share these two advertisements. There are some similarities and maybe there is no similarities. Check this out.
