Descriptive techniques are methods used in writing and communication to create vivid images in the reader's mind. These techniques include the use of sensory details, figurative language, and specific examples to enhance the clarity and impact of the message. By appealing to the senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell—writers can make their descriptions more engaging and relatable. Common descriptive techniques include similes, metaphors, and personification. A simile compares two things using "like" or "as," while a metaphor makes a direct comparison. Personification gives human traits to non-human entities. Together, these techniques help convey emotions and create a more immersive experience for the audience.
