What figure of speech is found in Lofty mountains that pierce the clouds and reach to dizzying heights may appear to us humans as coldly majestic, lonely, even forbidding? I think it’s personification but I still need help

Personification.

Explanation:

Personification is the giving of human attributes or characteristics to some non-human or abstract ideas or themes. Such an act allows the writer to provide more 'color' or 'body' to their work, enriching it in such a way that it appeals to the thinking and imagination of the readers.

In the given sentence "Lofty mountains that pierce the clouds and reach to dizzying heights may appear to us humans as coldly majestic, lonely, even forbidding".

The use of the word "lofty mountains that pierce the clouds" seem to imply that the mountains have feelings, like a feeling of aloofness, while at the same time "reach to dizzying heights" signify the ability to literally try to reach or touch as humans do. These factors all suggest the use of personification where these mountains are given the characteristics of humans like the ability to feel lonely, the ability to reach something, etc.

as we know, the english language is spoken all over the world by native and non-native speakers and has become the most certain tool when it comes to communicating. businesses, schools, even romantic relationships depend on it to keep thriving. in addition, it is the language of the internet not only because most of the content available is in english, but also because people prefer to use it when talking to others, since it's the language everyone supposedly learns.

yet, there have been some current claims that chinese will soon take over as the most important language in the world. china's magnitude has never been more evident and doing business with the chinese is a gold mine for any country. we now see language schools offering chinese courses as commonly as english.

however - even though we cannot deny china's importance and the advantage it is when someone takes the time to learn the language their business contact speaks-, people in general seem to be ignoring the aspects that seem to keep english as the chosen one of languages. one of them has been mentioned above: it is the language of the internet. also, chinese people are still learning english, since it opens doors in communicating with practically everyone else, from every single country.
