A hyperbole is a rhetorical device that involves exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally. It is often used for emphasis or comedic effect, enhancing the expression of an idea or feeling. For example, saying "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" illustrates an extreme hunger in a humorous way. Hyperboles are commonly found in everyday language, literature, and advertising.
