C- it contains meaning other than the actual word for word meaning
The correct answer is C. It contains meaning other than the actual word for word meaning
Explanation:
Language can be classified as literal if the words used follow their denotative meaning which implies the phrases, expressions or sentence used meant exactly what they say. On the opposite, language is classified as figurative if words and the language used do not follow the conventions in meaning which means they have a different meaning to their actual meaning or dictionary meaning. This includes the use of metaphors, similes, allusion, oxymoron, etc, in which words are used in a non-conventional way to express other meanings. Thus, figurative language is different from literal language because "it contains meaning other than the actual word for word meaning".
