if you are asking whether a plane can stop at the air while flying, put your ear down 👇
Olodo core
The same men who say
"this jollof is killing me",
"my boss wants to kill me with work"
and
"Arsenal will be the death of me"
have suddenly discovered the dictionary because a woman described pregnancy as a death sentence.
You understand figures of speech perfectly. You just don't like it when a woman uses one to describe something that actually kills her.
Nigeria accounts for more than a quarter of all maternal deaths in the world.
So no, it's not "definitely die". But it's a gamble with her life every single time, and she's the one taking the risk while you argue about vocabulary.
Tf is this. The moment you were born, there is already a possibility of you dying. Weather you go out, stay at home, eat, drink, youre doing everything towards death.
There is a chance youll slip in your bathroom, hit your head on the wall and die. Will you stop bathing?
Youre just buying excuse got idiots. This your comparison isnt it at all!
Oyinbo yi ju ori mi lo but youre right!!
Esq, distinguishing figurative intent from literal, is simple. And please, drop your abstract examples of metaphor; the case at hand involves two real, verifiable conditions.
If a teacher says 'my class is a zoo,' and a staff says 'no, students are not animals,' the teacher won’t produce animal charts to prove her point, she just laughs and says 'it’s just a figure of speech.'
But when Mum Zee said 'pregnancy is not a death sentence' and people kept giving cases of maternal mortality to prove her wrong. You didn’t take that as a sign that the exchange wasn’t about a metaphor but a literal assertion of fact??.
When a dispute is fought using factual evidence, it is a literal debate over actual outcomes, not a literary exercise. You don’t use factual evidence to argue “the class is a zoo”, nor “life is a journey” nau😂.
It was AFTER sufficient medical opinion saturated the air on the subject that they tried taking the “literary” license to evade the critic of the travesty.

Estevao is a good talent, but he still needs development, this is the performance ratings in the premier league since he joined cfc..
The managers either have to overwhelmingly trust him to hit high levels (a gamble) or loan him out to a club where he can get games

some people don’t miss you. they miss what you can do for them.
notice how they disappear when life is good but suddenly remember your number when they need money, favors, or emotional support.
you keep calling it friendship because you’ve known them for years.
but be honest, if you stopped being useful to them today, how many would still stay?
