What's the difference between hyperbolically and squillion?
Hyperbolically
Definition:
(adv.) In the form of an hyperbola.
(adv.) With exaggeration; in a manner to express more or less than the truth.
Example Sentences:

(3) For a union that, in less than 25 years, has had to cope with the end of the cold war, the expansion from 12 to 28 members, the struggle to create a single currency and, most recently, the eurozone crisis, such a claim risks accusations of hyperbole.
(4) Furthermore, illustrations of the types of transfer characteristics observed in different individuals and different training regimens can be obtained, including both hyperbolic (Michaelis-Menten) and sigmoid transfer characteristics.

(6) In it he translated Trump’s coarse ramblings into charming straight talk and came up with the phrase “truthful hyperbole”, which captures brilliantly an approach to business and politics in which everything is the greatest, the most beautiful.
(7) Sitting at the table today, Archie is doing his best to look the part – in time-honoured hip-hop style, there is an inspirational motto tattooed on his forearm in flowing script – and he and Foster have an impressive line in managerial hyperbole: "We believe that whatever record label we work for, we can change that label for the better because we understand what kids want to listen to."
(8) The plot is still hyperbolic in the presence of La3+, which inhibits Ca2+ transport competitively.

Squillion
Definition:
Example Sentences:
