Which two parts of this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note" use hyperbole? "I may use your name! Your name--thi
navik [9.2K]

A hyperbole is either a word or a sentence in a text that shows an overstatement (an exaggeration), it does not have to be literal; it is just a way to express your ideas in order to generate a contrast or to get the reader's attention.

In the excerpt the hyperboles (exaggerations) are:

  • <u><em>Your name--think of it! Man,</em></u><u><em> they'll flock in droves</em></u><u><em>, these rich Londoners; they'll fight for that stock! </em></u>

When the writer says <em>"they'll flock in droves", </em>he refers to a very big amount of people together.

  • <em><u>In less than twenty-four hours London was </u></em><em><u>abuzz</u></em><em><u>!</u></em>

When the writer uses the word <em>"abuzz", </em>it does not mean the city was on fire; it means the city was lively busy.
