And the converse of "Literally" is, or should be, "Illiterally", I think, I don't know, literally.

I would consider the converse of "literally" to be "figuratively".

"Literally" literally means "literally", but figuratively now means "figuratively".

It's "figuratively" or, more... literally, "metaphorically."

pretty sure it was a joke
