Thus, the purpose of this study is to conduct a contrastive analysis on proverbs related to gain and loss in English and Vietnamese. This study focuses on the semantic and syntactic features of proverbs related to gain and loss in the two languages to find out the similarities and differences between them. However, some stylistic devices are also presented to clarify sense relations of proverbs. A number of samples from dictionaries, magazines, books and the internet are selected and categorized in terms of syntactic, semantic and stylistic devices to serve the purpose of study stated. On the basis of findings, some implications for teaching and learning in both languages are suggested. This thesis is significant in providing some linguistic and pedagogical contributions. Linguistically, the study yields a better insight into structures and meanings of proverbs in general as well as the syntax and semantics of money related proverbs in English and Vietnamese in particular. Pedagogically, the study result can be helpful to teachers and learners of English. 2025-03-19T04:31:11Z 2025-03-19T04:31:11Z 2013 Thesis https://data.ufl.udn.vn/handle/UFL/1808 en application/pdf application/pdf Trường Đại học Ngoại ngữ, Đại học Đà Nẵng
