More on Literal
My meaning is exactly what I say.
To be literal is to mean what you say. For example:If I tell you to sit down! I mean it literally: “sit down,” as in: “sit in your seat now, please.”

and more on Literal
I mean exactly what I say.
Here’s another example.I’m tired and going home.
This means “I’m tired and I’m going home” there is no other meaning other than what is said.

I’m not suggesting we get into the freezer.
To be figurative is to not mean what you say but imply something else. For example:

It has nothing to do with temperature.
“let’s go chill” …
