Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Literal language means exactly what it says, while figurative language uses similes, metaphors, hyperbole, and personification to describe something often through comparison with something different. See the examples below.
Detailed explanation-2: -Verbal irony is when your speaker says something that’s the opposite to what they mean. While it sounds similar to sarcasm, it’s not exactly the same.
