My great-grandmother. I would've liked to have known her, a wild horse of a woman.

1. This is a metaphor.

2. In this sentence, the great-grandchild is directly comparing their great-grandmother to a wild horse.

3. She is possibly saying that their great-grandmother acted a bit "wild", like how a horse can start acting in ways not necessary or something along those lines.

[He carried her off] as if she were a fancy chandelier.

1. This is a simile.

2. In this sentence, the man is carrying a woman as if (a word used to compare something - used as a simile) she was a chandelier.

3. She is most likely saying that the man is carrying the woman carefully, since the woman is being compared to a chandelier, which needs to be transported carefully or else it would shatter and break into pieces.

The table.

1. Simile - She is comparing her name to the number 9 using the word like.

2. Metaphor - She is directly comparing her name to a muddy color by not including like or as and stating that she is something.

3. Simile (I think) - She is comparing the songs to sobbing using the word like.

4. Simile - She is comparing the syllables of her name to be made out of tin using the words 'as if'.

5. Simile - She is comparing the hurting feeling of saying the syllables to the hurting feeling of hitting a tin roof using 'as if'.

6. Simile - She is comparing the feel of her name to silver using the word like.

7. Not really sure; I think Simile - She is comparing her name to the thickness (or not as thick) of her sister's name.
