I think you mean figure of speech but I might be wrong but I will tell you what a figure of speech is...

A figure of speech is a word or phrase that has a different meaning from its literal meaning.

for e.g. Similes, metaphors, personification, hyperbole (Exaggeration) etc are examples.

Hope this helps! <span />
