If the narrator is in our current universe and is recounting a history of the Star Wars universe, they could use similes which only make sense with our cultural context. (I'm not saying that's the case here though.) | |

Apr 16, 2015 at 20:08 | comment | added | Zhaph - Ben Duguid | Those are both examples of simile - the descriptions are there to help the reader understand the description in the context of their own understanding and does not guarantee that the listener in either case would use the phrase "cat". It would be rather frustrating to read "He purred, in the pit of his throat, like are wild mooka" - with no other indication of what a mooka is. | |
