Abstract

Love language is how people express and experience love in relationships. It can create meaningful and profound connections between individuals, fostering love, affection, and intimacy in romantic relationships. Meanwhile, figurative language is the use of words or expressions in a way that deviates from their literal meaning to create a more vivid, imaginative, and expressive effect. It can add depth, imagery, and richness to writing or speech by transcending literal meanings and conveying ideas or feelings more creatively and imaginatively.
