Alex, reading his book: Mad as a hornet. Bzzzzzzzzzzz!
Me: Hmmm?
A: He is mad as a hornet. It's an igh-dough-um.
Me: Um. Igh-dough-um? Oh! An IDIOM?
A: Yeah. (looking very exasperated with me)
Me: You are awesome. But I think it's a simile.
So we looked it up and I am pretty sure it is, in fact, a simile. And now we are attempting to figure out metaphors, similes, analogies, and idioms.
