The part of Ernest Hemingway's short story "The End of Something" that is the best example of rejection of traditional beliefs is C. when Nick says love is not fun.
The traditional belief would suggest otherwise - however, by denying the thrill of love, Nick is getting rid of this innate traditional belief. The other examples do not really show this type of rejection, they represent other things that can be found in the story.
Answer:
b. Figurative Meaning.
Explanation:
A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up other than the literal meaning.
The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.
Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.
Hence, the difference for the literal, or usual meaning of a word is a figurative meaning.
