Figurative language is a literary device that allows the author to express a message with non-literal and subjunctive meaning, through words and phrases that do not express their real meaning, but that require the reader's reasoning to interpret and understand them. This type of device is used to give more expression to a word or phrase and makes it more poetic and expressive. As an example we can use the phrases:
it all depends on what the person interpretes as moral or acceptable, but for example, this has to do with religion, emotions and many other aspects in life
