<u>He's running faster than the wind. </u>

<u>This bag weighs a ton. </u>

<u>That man is as tall as a house. </u>

<u>This is the worst day of my life. </u>

<u>The shopping cost me a million dollars. </u>

<u>My dad will kill me when he comes home. </u>

<u>Your skin is softer than silk. </u>

<u>She's as skinny as a toothpick.</u>

<u>Hyperbole is from a Greek word meaning "excess" is a figure of speech that uses exaggeration to make a point or show  emphasis. It is the opposite of understatement.</u>
