LESSON: If someone says,“ Brad is a turtle," most understand this to mean that Brad is slow. How do they make the connection between Brad being a turtle and being slow? Figurative language means using words to imply another meaning or to evoke an emotion. The greater the exaggeration, the greater emotional response occurs. http:// teachertube. com / viewVi deo. php? video _ id = 103635
