Identify the figure of speech used in the following sentence:

Rohini has made all of us so proud with her accomplishments that she is the star of our family in a true sense.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Rohini is called the star of the family directly, without like or as. An implied comparison stated as identity is a metaphor. A simile would need like or as, hyperbole would need deliberate exaggeration, and irony would need a reversal of meaning.
