Abstract
The embodied approach assumes that metonymy plays an important role in generating abstract and complex concepts based on bodily experiences. Therefore, it is required to explore the aspects and contributions of metonymy in the early stage of language acquisition in infants when concepts and forms of language begin to form. Although in previous studies researchers found that metonymic uses were prevalent in the productions of children aged 3-5 years, metonymic abilities in children aged 1-2 years in the early stages of language acquisition have not been covered.
