Upon gazing at the gold-dusted Royal Bank of Toronto, the distinctly New World legend of the city of gold strikes upon the imagination of one particular viewer: “because my legs are way too long, like a grasshopper’s.” The Royal BankĪn allusion to myth is made in a metaphorical image stimulated by the concrete (and steel and glass) reality of the present. She points out the origin of her nickname which is French for “the great grasshopper” by pointing out that people started calling her La Grand Sauterelle Or, that is to say, it is a comparison-through-simile which has earned her the unusual moniker.
One of the character’s names-technically a nickname-is a metaphor. We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own. These notes were contributed by members of the GradeSaver community.
