Abstract
Metaphor is the psychological behavior, linguistic behavior and cultural behavior of perceiving, experiencing, imagining, understanding and talking about such things under the hint of other things. Metaphor can make things vivid and tangible and also make profound and abstract truth be expressed more simply and concretely. In daily life, sometimes words can not be understood according to their literal meaning, but need to be combined with people's perception of the objective world to understand the real intention of the speaker to express. This linguistic phenomenon is called metaphorical view in cognitive linguistics. Metaphor is an indispensable part in both Chinese and English. People often use proverbs containing metaphors to express their meanings, and popular online expressions also often contain metaphors. However, some metaphors have already been integrated into daily life and are easy to be overlooked. This paper will analyze the metaphor phenomena and essences in daily life from the aspects of network popular terms, proverbs, teleplay and so on.
