Question 1 Report

Kínni orúkọ fífi ohun bí ẹranko ṣàpẹẹrẹ?

Answer Details

Describing something by likening it to the sound or behaviour of an animal is a form of illustration, using one thing to stand in for and clarify another. In Yoruba, an illustrative comparison of this kind is named àpẹẹrẹ, an example.

Àfihàn refers to a display or manifestation in a broader sense, àròkọ refers to a written composition or letter, and ìsàlẹ̀ refers to the bottom or foundation of something; none of these names the specific technique of using an animal's sound or trait as an illustrative comparison.

When a question asks for the name of a technique that likens something to an animal for effect, look for the option describing an illustrative example, since that is the general term Yoruba uses for this kind of comparison.
