Abstract
Metaphors are everywhere in peoples daily life, and one way to make abstract cognitive systems visualizable is by looking at the language people are using. Language is used as a tool or medium to surface abstract things with figurative concepts or to express two different concepts with a new expression, which is widely used by linguists and people in daily life. Meanwhile, we communicate or express ideas through implicit metaphors in language that also relate to our environment, our own body or mental state, and some linguistic metaphors overlap in different languages. The purpose of the present review is to comparatively analyze several languages and use the view of conceptual linguistics to summarize the relationship between peoples cognitive activity and conceptual metaphor in different language systems, including Chinese, English, and Uzbek, and in a different context, including the social environment.
