Is the pouring rain an exaggeration or a metaphor 10

Exaggeration. The difference between exaggeration and metaphor is that metaphor cannot compare the same kind of things to the same kind of things. He is like his father!

Although there is a figurative word for "like", it is not a figurative sentence. Pouring rain means that the rain is as heavy as a scoop. The fact that rain is like rain and that the people above are like people cannot be considered metaphorical.

It's just an exaggeration to describe the heaviness of the rain.

[Scoop] is that the ancients split a gourd in half, using the hollow characteristics of the gourd, and using this half of the gourd to take water and become a container. The specific capacity of a scoop depends on the size of the gourd itself. Generally speaking, its capacity is about the same as a 500ml bottle, and the largest one is only about 1 liter.

Basin] is a basin, a container used by the ancients to store liquids, which is larger, not the kind of small basin we use today. In ancient times, the capacity of a standard basin was 12 buckets and 8 liters (ancient system).

Therefore, from the meaning of the above two words, it can be seen that the ancients coined the idioms "pouring heavy rain" and "pouring heavy rain" to describe the particularly heavy rain, and there is a difference in the degree of these two idioms: among them, "pouring heavy rain" is relatively small; And the "downpour" is even heavier.

The image of a downpour is only the size of a basin, and the rain is only instantaneous, and the pouring rain describes the rain as urgent, not something that can be completed in an instant, so the pouring rain is relatively large.

It should be that the downpour is bigger, and judging by the adjectives used, scooping and pouring, it must be that the basin should be bigger.

The pouring rain is relatively heavy. Because the image of a downpour is only the size of a basin, the rain is only instantaneous, and the pouring rain describes the rain as urgent, not something that can be completed in an instant, so the pouring rain is relatively large. Heavy rain and downpour are synonyms, both used to describe the abundance and urgency of rain, and there is no difference in use.

In fact, they all describe a state of particularly heavy rain, but the "scoop" will be much smaller than the "basin", and from the visual state and understanding, you will feel that the downpour is heavier.

In fact, it is a state that describes heavy rain.

Heavy rain like splashing water with a scoop. Describe how it rains very heavily.
