Answer:
Proverbs are popular sayings which contain advice or state a generally accepted truth. Most proverbs have their origins in oral tradition, they are generally worded in such a way as to be remembered easily and tend to change little from generation to generation, so much so that sometimes their specific meaning is no longer relevant. For instance, the proverb “penny wise, pound foolish” is a holdover from when America was a British colony and used the pound as currency. Proverbs function as “folk wisdom,” general advice about how to act and live, and because they are folk wisdom, they are often strongly reflect the cultural values and physical environment from which they arise. Proverbs are used to support arguments, to provide lessons and instruction, and to stress shared values.

Answer:
Referring to the dictionary defenition of a word
Explanation:
This is because the author is using the word in a literal meaning and not in an expressional meaning like a poet does.
Example. The Main Character cannot break through the wall, Its pretty tough.
This is literal. The word " tough " is being used in its dictionary meaning since it means Hard.
Meanwhile a poet might use this as an expression of something else like
" He was heartbroken, the woman he loved had shattered his soul and it was a tough experience for him "
Tough is used as an emotional feeling of being broken down instead of its dictionary counterpart.
