Literally – English editing.

In one of its meanings, literally is used to show that a metaphor or idiom is to be interpreted in its real, physical meaning, as in literally too tired to move. This use can lead to nonsense, as in we were literally killing ourselves laughing, so you should only use it in this way when you are sure that your audience will not take you literally.
