Announcing the availability of a dataset of figurative and literal comparisons.
This dataset contains a collection of 1400 comparisons annotated for
figurativeness, together with the context in which they appeared. The
comparisons are extracted mostly from Amazon.com product reviews.

This corpus is released together with the paper:

Brighter than Gold: Figurative Language in User Generated Comparisons
