Hyperbole - A Figure of speech || Explained in Hindi and English with Notes ||

Hyperbole
1. Dictionary defines 'hyperbole' as 'exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally'.
2. Hyperbole (pronounced ‘high-purr-bo-lee’) is a figure of speech in which an author or speaker purposely and obviously exaggerates to an extreme.
3.It is used for emphasis or as a way of making a description more creative and humorous.
4.It is important to note that hyperbole is not meant to be taken literally; the audience knows it’s an exaggeration.
For example:
That suitcase weighed a ton!
In this example, The speaker is using hyperbole in order to emphasize that the suitcase feels very heavy.
Hyperbole in Literature
We often use hyperbole in everyday speech, but we also use it in prose and poetry. For example, in love poetry, the speaker may use hyperbole to emphasize their intense passion and admiration for the beloved.
Example :
Joseph Conrad emphasizes the passing of time in the novel “Heart of Darkness”:
I had to wait in the station for ten days- an eternity.
Ten days is by no means an eternity, forever, but it felt like it.
The Importance of Hyperbole
Hyperbole is often used in creative writing just to make a description more amusing or creative. For example, it is more interesting to say “she had a brain the size of planet” than “she was really smart.” Hyperbole is a great opportunity to inject feeling and humor into a description.
