Resumo: The metaphorical relation has already been described as comparison, contrast, analogy, similarity, juxtaposition, collision, fusion, etc. besides the fact of having received different interpretations vis-a-vis its nature, operation, and function. Considering that metaphor is indispensable to the functioning of language and thought, and taking Lakoff & Johnson's conceptual theory as a parameter, we will explore in this work some conceptualized representations in metaphorized expressions of Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. With this we will be trying to orient the analysis towards the process of disemantization which takes place when the words composing a phrasal unity undergo a metaphoric process, losing the nominative characteristic function they have when considered separately. In this study, we also intend to make brief comments on the scholars’ approaches to metaphoric cognition issues, and specially to show the role of metaphor in the construction of meaning in idiomatic metaphoric expressions.

Partindo do pressuposto de que a metáfora é um aspecto indispensável ao funcionamento da linguagem e do pensamento e tomando como parâmetro a teoria conceitual de Lakoff & Johnson, exploramos neste trabalho algumas representações sistematizadas conceitualmente em expressões metaforizadas do Português do Brasil e do Espanhol de Cuba. Com isso estaremos procurando nortear a análise para o processo de dessemantização que ocorre quando as palavras que compõem a unidade fraseológica se metaforizam perdendo a função nominativa característica de cada uma delas quando tomadas separadamente. Neste trabalho pretendemos de maneira sucinta tecer comentários sobre a maneira como alguns pesquisadores têm tratado a questão da cognição metafórica, e, especialmente, mostrar o papel da metáfora na construção de sentido das expressões idiomáticas metafóricas.Programa de Pós-Graduação em Linguística Aplicada2004-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/horizontesla/article/view/36405Revista Horizontes de Linguistica Aplicada; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2004); 19-35Revista Horizontes de Linguistica Aplicada; v. 3 n. 1 (2004); 19-352237-09511677-9770reponame:Revista Horizontes de Linguística Aplicadainstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/horizontesla/article/view/36405/28924Copyright (c) 2021 Revista Horizontes de Linguistica Aplicadahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlvarez, Maria Luisa Ortiz 2021-02-09T15:10:01Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/36405Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/horizontesla/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/horizontesla/oaihorizontesla@gmail.com2237-09511677-9770opendoar:2023-01-13T09:49:31.086798Revista Horizontes de Linguística Aplicada - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
