does anyone know what he word 'trope' means?
here's a hint: don't learn English vocabulary and world history from Internet listicles. the word that you meant to use is 'cliche'. a trope is any use of language in a non-literal way. the word was misused by the website 'tvtropes' and has suffered more than the words 'ironic' and 'literally' in the hands of the semi-literate Internet-educated ever since. this article is pathetic. 75.100.65.174 (talk) 18:28, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Are you uneducated, or do you barely speak English? The nonsense which you describe is Trope (literature), about figurative language. The main topic here is Trope (cinema), about cinematic conventions and visual metaphors. Dimadick (talk) 20:36, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
