Also known as overstatement
Hyperbole (; adj. hyperbolic ) is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. In rhetoric, it is also sometimes known as auxesis (literally 'growth'). In poetry and oratory, it emphasizes, evokes strong feelings, and creates strong impressions. As a figure of speech, it is usually not meant to be taken literally.
Hyperbole is a form of extreme exaggeration used in speech and writing to emphasize a point, evoke strong emotions, or create a memorable impression. It's not meant to be understood as literally true, but rather as a tool that makes language more vivid and impactful.
