A figure of speech is an expression in which the words are used, but not in their literal sense, to create a more forceful or dramatic meaning. They are often in the form of metaphors, similes and hyperbole. "e;A fountain of knowledge,"e; is a good example. "e;Stretching the truth,"e; is another.With Figuratively Speaking, we finally have a thesaurus to discover these phrases' origins and the sources of their meanings.
