The correct answer is option (b) hyperbole.
- Hyperbole is often used for stress or effect. In normal parlance, it serves as a pronoun: that "bag weighs a ton" simply means that the bag was too heavy. The speech tool can be used for sensitive or humorous or humorous results. Understanding hyperbole and its application in context can help to understand the point of the speaker.
- Hyperbole usually conveys the emotions or feelings of the speaker, or to those to whom the speaker may speak. It can be used in the form of humor, excitement, depression, and many other emotions, all depending on the context in which the speaker is using it.

Answer:
Hyperbole is the correct answer.
Explanation:
- Hyperbole is a figure of speech that uses an exaggerated or extravagant statement to create a strong emotional response. As a figure of speech it is not intended to be taken literally. Hyperbole is frequently used for humour.
- Hyperbole is a figure of speech you use when you want to exaggerate what you mean or emphasize a point. It comes from the Greek word to mean “excess” and is often used to make something sound much bigger, better, funnier, or more dramatic than it actually is.
- Hyperbole is often used in day-to-day speech. For example, upon seeing your friend after a long absence, you may say, “I haven’t seen you in a million years!” You and your friend both know that this is not literally the case.
