Best Answer

when someone describes something bigger, stronger, taller or whatever than it really is. E.g.: ''My friend's dog is soo fat, I think it's even heavier than the eiffel tower'' <-------- this is an exageration because it's impossible for a dog to be heavier than the eiffel tower.

Exaggerating is when a person makes something sound bigger or worse then it actually is. People might exaggerate how big a fish was or how much they make a year.

What is the difference between lying and exagerating?

A lie is 100% fabrication, untrue. Exaggerating begins with truth and is modified, to suit the speaker, to make the 'story better' to suit his/her agenda or impress. Then there are half-truths, which a statement contains truth, but critical points are omitted, completely changing the real thing.
