figurative means other language

Answer 2

Literal language is used to mean exactly what is written.

For example: “It was raining a lot, so I rode the bus.” In this example of literal language, the writer means to explain exactly what is written: that he or she chose to ride the bus because of the heavy rain.

Figurative language is used to mean something other than what is written, something symbolic,

suggested, or implied.

For example:

It was raining cats and dogs, so I rode the bus.

In this example of figurative language, there were not actually cats and dogs falling from rain clouds,

instead, the rain felt so heavy and large that it was almost as if small animals were falling from the sky!
