The case studies included in this book explore some of the different ways new metaphoric and metonymic expressions emerge and spread among speech communities, and how these changes can be related to the need to encode ongoing social and cultural processes in the language. They cover a wide series of languages and historical stages.Cognitive linguistics research ;52.MetaphorCross-cultural studiesMetonymsCross-cultural studiesFigures of speechCross-cultural studiesLinguistic changeCross-cultural studiesSociolinguisticsLanguage and cultureCognitive Linguistics.Figurative Language.Linguistic Change.MetaphorMetonymsFigures of speechLinguistic changeSociolinguistics.Language and culture.808/.032EC 3765BSZrvkDíaz Vera Javier E.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788818403321Metaphor and metonymy across time and cultures3787177UNINA
