  1. synesthetic metaphor

    A synesthetic metaphor is a type of figurative language that describes one sensory experience in terms of another, evoking a cross-sensory perception. For example, describing a color in terms of sound, a taste in terms of sight, or a sound in terms of touch. It goes beyond traditional metaphorical language by creating multi-dimensional sensory experiences in the reader or listener's mind, thereby enhancing their understanding or perception of the described subject.
