The Conceptual Metaphor of “Blue” in Vietnamese Language
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 04
Abstract
Having been developed from the 1980s to the present, the conceptual metaphor theory, which has been accepted as a scientific foundation with fully explainable ability, allows researchers to understand and interpret world categories through the system of ideas that are experienced in language. In the light of cognitive linguistics, metaphor is considered as one of the forms of conceptual thinking, reflecting people's ways of thinking and conceptualization of the world around through linguistic expressions, a cognitive mechanism through which the logic of abstract concepts is replaced by the logic of more concrete concepts. Within the scope of this scientific paper, we draw attention to the conceptual metaphor of color, in which blue is a mapped source concept to a different target domain perceived by the Vietnamese.
