Good evening to all steemians.
Hopefully all of you are always in a state of success.
In this post, I share about a figure of speech.

In general, everyone knows what butterflies are.
Insects that have winged scales and pteryons, when perched always spread their wings and have beautiful colors.

Because of its shape and beauty, butterflies are used as figurative words.
In my country, a commercial sex worker is called a night butterfly.

Night butterfly comes from the basic word butterfly.
The meaning of the night butterfly is included in the type of figurative word so that the use of the word night butterfly is not in the real sense.

According to an Indonesian writer named Yapi Panda Abdiel Tambayong, the term night butterfly is a parable.

Because butterflies are beautiful, and have a short life time so that only one night can be enjoyed, then this term is made.
This is a poetic term.

Basically, the term often used to refer to women who are usually selling themselves is prostitutes.
In denotative and connotative terms, prostitutes are more complete and specific.

This is the writing tonight.
Hopefully it is considered necessary.
thanks.
