Answer 2

In common usage, a figure of speech is a word or phrase that means something more or something other than it seems to say—the opposite of a literal expression...
In rhetoric, a figure of speech is a type of figurative language (such as metaphor, irony, understatement, or anaphora) that departs from conventional word order or meaning.

example
Lieutenant Columbo: So you had an hour to kill before you had to get back to the airport.
Dr. Neil Cahill: I take it you mean to use that phrase, "to kill." You mean that literally.
Lieutenant Columbo: No, I was just using a figure of speech. I'm not making an accusation.
