Abstract: Within different theories, clear categorical distinctions can often be made, but quite often graded judgments seem to be the rule. That is why metaphor appreciation and metaphor understanding may be independent of one another. Language theory has formulated definitions of figurative language in terms of a binary opposition, i.e. figurative language emerges in contrast to what it is not; however, more and more linguists agree that the distinction between the two notions, and the way they are defined, needs to be reconsidered. In what follows we try to identify the current trend in interpreting the metaphor. | |||||||
