Hyperbole

Hyperbole 
by 
RITA M.S ;-)

Hyperbole 
Hyperbole ,derived from a greek word meaning "over -casting " is a vigure of speech, which
involves an exaggeration of ideas for the sake of emphasis.

It is a device that we employ in our day -to - day speech. for intance, when you meet a friend
after a long time , you say" ,  ages have passed since I last saw you " .you may not have met him for three or four hours or a day, but the use of the word "ages " exaggerates this statment to add emphasiss to your wait. Therefore, a hyperbole is an unreal exaggeration to emphasize the real situation . some other common hyperbole examples are given below.

* My grandmother is as old as the hills.
* your switcase weighs a ton!
* she is as heavy as an elephant!
* Im dying of shame
* Im trying to solve a million issues these days.




 It is important not to confuse hyperbole with simile and metaphor.It does make a comparison but unlike simile and metaphor hyperbole has a humorous effect created by an overstatement.
