Figure of speech – other map (anag.) (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

metaphor

(Other definitions for metaphor that I've seen before include "Figure of speech - allegory" , "Expression where something is described as if it really is what it merely resembles" , "Allegorical figure" , "7/16 [FIGURE OF SPEECH]" , "Figure of speech - other map (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
