Answer:

Hyperbole

Explanation:

Hyperbole is a figure of speech used by writers to exaggerate a piece of writing for the benifit of humor, emphasis and effect. Hyperbole is used in many everyday conversations to say something without coming out directly. Hyperbole statements aren't supposed to be taken literally.

This means that the person won't literally eat a horse just that he or she is very hungry.
