OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Figurative language is language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. When a writer uses literal language, he or she is simply stating the facts as they are. http://grammar.yourdictionary.com/style-and-usage/Figurative-Language.html Misleading language is obviously something someone says, writes or types that is misleading. Now, which one of those do you think it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Figurative Language?

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

The road curves as it goes up the hill. What other meaning could that have other than the road curving up the hill?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Figurative language is language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation.

Could those lines have a different meaning?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To be completely honest I feel this is literal language because it's literally saying the path ahead curves.

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

I believe an explanation of the answer would still be beneficial.

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

That's my opinion. I'm more of a literature guy not a English guy, I apologize.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

literal language it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):
