以下摘自 Practical English Usage：

We can use no with a noun or -ing form to mean ‘not any', or 'not a/an’.

Sometimes sentences constructed with verb + not and no + noun have similar
meanings. The structure with no is usually more emphatic.

注意到Practical English Usage中的例句都只涉及可数名词，所以才有了not an answer, no answer的结构可以套用。
$ ]; j  ^, [, o而朗文例句中的hyperbole 是不可数名词，无法套用了，

We prefer not a/any in objects and complements when the sense is not
emphatic. Compare:
He’s no fool. (= He's not a fool at all. - emphatic negative)
A whale is not a fish, (n o t A whale is no fish - the sense is not emphatic.)

用 no 也不算错的，只是意思不同，变得更强调，词典例句是正常语气说话，用不着这么强调
如果是在跟人争论，对方非说这是 hyperbole，你说这根本不是 hyperbole，就可以用 no

因为这里不是在讲数量，而是单纯的否定。

It is [hyperbole 不可数] to call it...       否定：It is not [hyperbole] ...

9 w8 ^: l! C/ i如果真的要用 no hyperbole，可以说 there is no hyperbole in calling it... 注意这里用了there is

冠词分为定冠词、不定冠词和零冠词，这里就是”零冠词+不可数名词“（not + 零冠词 + hyperbole）
