Explanation:

A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).

In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, oxymoron, etc.

An oxymoron can be defined as a figurative language that comprises of words or phrases that are contradictory.

This ultimately implies that, an oxymoron involves the intentional use of words or phrases that have opposite meanings.

Hence, if one uses a term like "giant shrimp", one creates an oxymoron because shrimps are small in all ramifications and cannot be referred to as a giant.

In conclusion, "giant shrimp" qualifies as an oxymoron because the words "giant" and "the small nature of a shrimp" are contradictory i.e have opposite meanings.
