Abstract
«Crows and owls: the metaphor as pragmatic element in proverbs of Dariya and Peninsular Spanish». In this paper, we will study the metaphor as a pragmatic problematic element in the ASL. We will use principles of cognitive linguistic to analyze the characteristics of the conceptual metaphor and its linguistic expression. On the other hand, we will also discuss how the conceptual metaphor is influenced both by the language and the culture. For this purpose, we will use a corpus of proverbs and idioms in Dariya and in Spanish. This analysis will then be use to develop ELE’s materials that approach this type of questions, but are normally forgotten in the classroom of languages.
