b. Figurative Meaning.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up other than the literal meaning.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Hence, the difference for the literal, or usual meaning of a word is a figurative meaning.

I tend to stay up very late—it’s usually about midnight to 3 am before I go to sleep. I began doing it because it was much easier to get things done while my husband and kids were sleeping. Now it’s more of a habit than anything, but I do still achieve a lot in those hours.
