Figure of speech explanation

Metaphor, irony, simile and personification are types of figures of speech.Irony is a figure of speech in which the real meaning is exactly opposite to what is being said. For example: These sweet little mountains fascinate me. The doctor needs a medical advice. The teacher needs to be taught. Regards
