A figurative phrase or "figurative language" refers to language that is not meant to be taken literally. Examples of figurative language are similes (comparisons using "like" or "as"; he was as tall as a skyscraper or her hair was like golden waves), metaphors (comparisons that do not use "like" or "as"; his breath was fire), hyperboles (exaggerated speech; her suitcase weighed a ton), personification (giving human qualities to an inanimate object; the book jumped off of the desk), and others.
