are there any answer choices?
OpenStudy (safyousuff97):
is there hyperbole
OpenStudy (clongoria2):
I believe exaggerated language is used to give emphasis to something. Or to show the intense emotions a character has. For example. If i said "my heart is broken." Its pretty dull and has no real emotion. But if i said. "My heart was shattered into a thousand shards of glass that could never be repaired." That shows a lot more emotion
OpenStudy (clongoria2):
So the use of exaggerated language is to give emphasis to what you are trying to describe/say.
OpenStudy (safyousuff97):
so it won't be hyperbole because it means to be sarcastic

OpenStudy (clongoria2):
If you are saying a hyperbole is exaggerated language then yes. But the question is asking why do you use hyperboles.
