To achieve the purposes, this paper chooses the descriptive, quantitative and qualitative approaches throughout the study. There are approximately 600 metaphorical expressions of “fire” collected from American and Vietnamese poems in books, newspapers and on the Internet. The findings presented sixteen source domains which occur in conceptual metaphors of “fire” in American, Vietnamese, or both. We found that American and Vietnamese share a lot of conceptual metaphors of “fire”.
