Hey kids! Analogies are fun! We use them to compare unlike things through their similarities! Don't reread that sentance!
Here's an example:
Crumb is to Bread as Splinter is Board
Wasn't that fun? See, because a crumb is a little piece of bread and a splinter is a little piece of a board! And they both get stuck in your mouth! Analogies are great!
Here are some more:
Belgium is to Beer as Duke University is to Rape Charges
Mother Theresa is to Halo as Microsoft is to Halo II
Down with Love is to Romantic Comedy as The Fifth Element is to Sci-Fi
The Yardbirds is to Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page as The Wu-Tang Clan is to Method Man, ODB, and the RZA
Crumb is to Bread as Splinter is to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Lenin is to Stalin as Martha Stewart is to Rachel Ray
Can you come up with any analogies?
A transcontinental beer analogy from Sachs:
ReplyDeletePilsener is to Ecuador as Singha is to Thailand.
