Here's a breakdown of what that means:
* Fiction: A genre of literature, film, or other creative works that is based on imaginary events and characters.
* Fictional: Describes something that is made up, not real, and part of a fictional story or world.
Here are some examples of how "fictional" is used:
* "The story is a fictional account of a time traveler." This means the story is made up and the time traveler is not a real person.
* "The characters in the movie are fictional." This means they don't exist in real life.
* "The setting is a fictional world." This means the place described in the story is not a real place.
In short, "fictional" refers to anything that is not based on reality and exists only within a work of fiction.
