Descrizione
Riassunto:This study investigated into the conceptual metaphors of Time in English and Vietnamese lyric songs of various composers in the two languages. This is a descriptive study executed in a contrastive analysis in 103 Vietnamese songs and 103 English songs. Under the framework of cognitive linguistics, we looked into how the English and Vietnamese made use of metaphorical expressions in lyric songs. Then we point out all findings about similarities and differences of images used in Time metaphors through English and Vietnamese lyric songs. Basing on these findings, implications about perceiving, and comprehending metaphor expressions of Time in English and Vietnamese have been proposed to the Vietnamese learners of English for the language transfer in interpreting and using metaphors.
