초록
The present study aims to test the understanding of synaesthetic metaphors in Thai. It helps support that the co-occurrence of how primary sense words and secondary sense words appear in a non–random and systematic pattern (Wongthai, 2009). Synaesthetic metaphors used in everyday language and those newly created, but syntactically possible from impossible co-occurrences, were used. The findings also reinforce the claim in the conceptual metaphor theory that human meaning and understanding are grounded in our bodily experiences in the world (Johnson, 1987; Lakoff & Johnson, 1980, 1999; Lakoff 2007). Moreover, synaesthetic metaphors also reveal that the perception affects language use.
Abstract
The present study aims to test the understanding of synaesthetic metaphors in Thai. It helps support that the co-occurrence of how primary sense words and secondary sense words appear in a non–random and systematic pattern (Wongthai, 2009). Synaesthetic metaphors used in everyday language and those newly created, but syntactically possible from impossible co-occurrences, were used. The findings also reinforce the claim in the conceptual metaphor theory that human meaning and understanding are grounded in our bodily experiences in the world (Johnson, 1987; Lakoff & Johnson, 1980, 1999; Lakoff 2007). Moreover, synaesthetic metaphors also reveal that the perception affects language use.
