In Search of Interlingual Equivalence within the Source Domain of “Temperature” in Polish and Italian Language Metaphors
Abstract
The aim of this article is to carry out a comparative analysis of two adjective series referring to intermediate temperature states in Polish and Italian. The subject of the study is a metaphorical use of the following adjectives in the area of broadly understood emotion: caldo – caloroso –tiepido – freddo for Italian and gorący – ciepły – letni – chłodny – zimny for Polish. The comparative material within the indicated carriers of metaphors is the Italian-language and Polish-language dictionaries available on-line, along with the Sketch Engine Corpus.
