Figurative Language

Figurative- departing from a literal use of words; metaphorical

Figure of speech- a word or phase used in a non literal sense to add rhetorical force to a spoken or written passage.
Imagery- visually descriptive or figurative language.
Trope- a figurative or metaphorical use of a word or expression.

I think that there kind of the same because they are a form of language that include exaggeration into what your saying.
