A hyperbole is a figure of speech that involves exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally. It is often used for emphasis or to create a strong impression. For example, saying "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" is a hyperbole, as it dramatically exaggerates the speaker's level of hunger. Hyperboles add flair to language and can enhance storytelling or persuasive writing.
