The phrase has a deeper abstract meaning. Here are some Figurative Language. Metaphor, Onomatopoeia, Hyperbole, Alliteration, simile,Oxymoron and more.....

Taha Tinana Challenge
Talofa Lava and welcome back to my blog. Today's task we were doing another Taha Tinana Challenge. We were given this task from Hannah who is another student in Pt England School. We had to bend our knee and push it up, then we had to attach it to our other leg that is still standing, after that we had to put our hands together and close our eyes and stay on that position for 1 minuet. We did stuggle a lot but it was totally fine because we can still change legs if we feel like its comfortable and is easier to do. Hope you guys enjoyed this task and has done this Taha Tinana Challenge.
What is your Taha Tinana Challenge?

Hope you enjoy watching the video and I will see you in the next Challenge. Bye!
