It could be considered as one due to the fact it exaggerates the idea of being clear, however i would consider it as more of a metaphor.
Hyperbole is the deliberate use of grossexaggeration for emphasis, effect, or to illustrate a point. Here are some examples:Examples:I could sleep a year.This book weighs a ton.Its raining cats and dogs!I called you a million times!If I've told you once, I've told you a million times.I'm so hungry I could eat a horse.* Hyperbole does not compare items, as with metaphor and simile, but merely exaggerates a certain quality or action. A hyperbole is an exaggeration meant to illustrate a point. For example, "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse" is a common hyperbole.Hyperbole is exaggeration for effect as in "I had to wait forever" or "I've told you a million times". It is used for emphasis or or to make a point in a strong way.The word is pronounced hy-PER-bo-lee (four syllables).

I think you mean synonym. A simile is a comparison using like or as. A synonym is two different words having the same meaning. but a synonym for round could be circular. a simile for round could be "The sun is as round as a basketball" Hope this helps!
A hyperbole is an exaggeration. Examples: I am so hungry I could eat a cow! I've been waiting in line for centuries!
That phrase is a simile because you used like. Any comparison using like or as is a simile. "He was as big as a mountain" is a simile. You could make it a metaphor by saying Jenny's voice is a bird singing a beautiful song. :D
"The fire's anger could not be contained" is neither a metaphor, nor a simile. It is an example of personification.
It is a simile, they use like or as. Like many similes, you could convert it to a metaphor: "In the ring, his hands became bolts of lightning."
That is more of a simile because it is using "as" but it could be hyperbole. A better one would be, "She was so nice that everyone else seemed mean".
"Young monkey" used as a literary term could be a metaphor or a simile, depending on the context. If it is used to compare someone's behavior or characteristics to that of a young monkey, it would be a metaphor. If it is used as a direct comparison using "like" or "as," it would be a simile.
Well the figurative language it uses all together is mostly simile but it could be hyperbole.(if its on hw use simile)
For a simile, you could use "as silent as a needle through lace" on page 88. For imagery, you could use "sweet smell of baked bread" on page 202. I'm not sure for metaphor, I'm still looking.
simile, metaphor, tone, punctuation, rhyme scheme, meter, connotations etc. hope it could help :)

He's exaggerating (and using a metaphor), but you could reply,"But my heart is warm" (literal)"But my heart's on fire!" (metaphor)"But my heart is like a furnace!" (simile)
Using a simile or metaphor can be confusing if the comparison isn't clear or if it is too complex for the audience to understand easily. This could lead to misinterpretation or misunderstanding of the intended message. It's important to ensure that the comparison is relatable and enhances the clarity of the communication.
Use like and as.Example: instead of saying ' You're Albert Einstein' you could say "you're as smart as him".
