Question

When language is nonliteral A. The author is being as clear as possible. B. It means exactly what it says. C. The reader must use inference skills to determine its meaning. D. Double meanings aren't allowed.

Answer 1

The Answer is C.

This is why. The word 'literal' can be defined simply as "face value". For example if some one says I literally haven't slept all night. You would see that this means they have not slept at all.
