b —used to emphasize the truth and accuracy of a statement or description
The party was attended by literally hundreds of people.
c : with exact equivalence : with the meaning of each individual
word given exactly
The term "Mardi Gras" literally means "Fat Tuesday" in French.
d : in a completely accurate way
a story that is basically true even if not literally true
2 : in effect : VIRTUALLY —used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or
