The term is "figurative language" and generally refers to metaphors, where the word used is suggestive of a relationship or characteristic. This is opposed to "literal language" where what is stated is actual, or factual.

An example of figurative language would be "letting off steam" (expressing anger or frustration) where the person is obviously not actually releasing heated water vapor.

The correct spelling is "figurative language." It refers to language that uses figures of speech, like similes, metaphors, and personification, to create a deeper meaning or visualization for the reader or listener.
