In "Nothing But the Truth" by Avi, figurative language is used primarily through dialogue, symbolism, and irony. The characters' conversations often convey deeper meanings and emotions beyond their literal words, highlighting the theme of truth versus perception. Additionally, the title itself serves as a symbol of the conflict between honesty and the subjective nature of truth, while irony permeates the narrative, illustrating the consequences of misunderstandings and assumptions.
what kind of figurative language is the world is my oyster
It seems perfectly possible to me that some delicious beverage (probably coffee) actually is good to the last drop, in which case this is not figurative language but the literal truth. However, if it is figurative language then it is a form of exaggeration. Perhaps the beverage is good, but not really good to the last drop.
