What is meant by a literal interpretation

English
1 answer:
AlekseyPX3 years ago
6 0
A literal interpretation is explaining something based on the literal meaning of the words or story, rather than the metaphorical meaning. For example, in Jack and the Beanstalk, the literal interpretation is that he actually climbed a beanstalk into a palace in the sky and found a golden egg. The metaphorical meaning is that he received wisdom, nurtured it, and it grew exponentially. Though the wisdom itself may not have been worth money, it led to wealth and success that could not be accessed another way. You see?

Do People who stand up for their rights always win
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Surprisingly, no.

Explanation:

As most stories throughout history suggest, standing up for your rights and what you believe in will get you what you want. But this isn't the case. Throughout history, we get stories of countries fighting for independence and the right to govern themselves freely but they don't receive it for hundreds of years and some still don't have the rights they deserve. While eventually, there is a change and situations lighten up for these "freedom fighters", most of the time the amount of bloodshed and horror that occurs before their rights are won.
