隐喻,指用一种事物暗喻另一种事物。这一个定义是循环定义,不恰当,我用wiki上的定义帮你代掉了。我觉得儿歌翻作nursery rhymes更恰当,当然也可以选用children's song.
The characteristics of the metaphor used in contemporary nursery rhymes
Abstract: A metaphor is a literary figure of speech that describes a subject by asserting that it is, on some point of comparison, the same as another otherwise unrelated object. It is often used in poems especially the modern and contemporary ones.
