Which of the following literary terms means “a phrase that means something other than what it appears to say"?

idiom
inference
simile
metaphor

The answer is idiom.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check the meaning of each literary term.

Idiom- This is a group of words or a phrase which has a figurative meaning. This means that the phrase has a different meaning from what it appears to be.

Example: He gave me a cold shoulder yesterday.

Cold shoulder doesn't literally mean a shoulder that is cold, but ignoring somebody. The sentence above means that he was ignored by the person yesterday.

Inference- This is a conclusion that is based on a particular evidence.

Example: The boy's t-shirt is wet.

Possible Inference:

The boy got wet in the rain.

Somebody splashed water on the boy.

Simile- This entails two different things that are being compared. It commonly uses the words "like" or "as" when comparing.

For example: She is light as a feather.

Metaphor- This also entails two things that are being compared, but in a direct way.

For example: Love is blind.
