oh, figurative devices like metaphor, simile, conceit, personification, hyperbole, onomatopeia, etc?\n\nmetaphor = "all the world's a stage" (a metaphor is when one thing designates or refers to another.\n\nconceit = an extended metaphor. Usually a conceit is the same recurring metaphor being used throughout an entire story\n\nsimile = comparing two different things using "like" or "as". (I was angry as a hornet) or (furious like a bull). these don't require a whole lot of skill, anybody can do them.\n\npersonification = giving a non-human thing (animal, tree, building, etc.) human characteristics. (The tower stood menacingly over the once-rural landscape)\n\nhyperbole = basically, extreme exaggeration used to get a point across. (He has the strength of a million men and twice the tenacity)\n\nonomatopeia = using words that sound like what they are. (boom! zap! pow!). This is a common feature used by children's authors and Juvenilia literature.

i guess something that is applicable? i checked the dictionary, but they don't have an adjective form...\n\nmaybe you should ask your friend? or the teacher/lecturer :)

Yes it IS an idiom, because it's meaning cannot be understood by merely knowing the definition of the individual words.  It isn't a literal translation.  You are not literally sticking to something, as in adhering to it.  Idioms are also known as "sayings," by the way, to non-linguists.  :)

LEARNT???\n\nTHERE????\n\nMaybe you should have paid more attention to your English lessons - I think you mean to say that you "LEARNED" it; & 'THERE' is always a place, I think you mean 'They're'; and you may have a better chance of finding it - now you will be using better references to look for it! GOOD LUCK
