Literal language means exactly what it says, while figurative language uses similes, metaphors, hyperbole, and personification to describe something often through comparison with something different.

Figurative language is used for expressions and figures of speech. An example would be "It's raining cats and dogs." Literal language is used more for formal language. An example would be "It's raining very hard."

Which literary device is used in the title of Oscar Wilde's play The Importance of Being Earnest?
My name is Ann [436]

<span>C. pun</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>A pun is a literary device where the author takes advantage of two words that sound the same yet have different meanings.  This is done in effort to insert comedy into writing.  An example of a pun is “I told a story about static electricity, and it was shocking.”  The pun here is “shocking” because of how it means appalling as well as a jolt of electricity.  With that in mind we can see the title of the play has a pun—“Earnest.”  The pun exists because Earnest is both a name within the play as well as sincere. </span>
