What is figurative meaning, and what is figurative meaning?

Figurative meaning is generally used for an idiom. That is to say, in addition to the literal, intuitive meaning, the extended meaning. For example, reciprocating a peach.

The literal meaning is that I give you peaches, and you give me plums, so the meaning of the idiom must not be so simple. Then it is to look at its figurative meaning, that is, to accept the kindness or help of others, and to know how to return this heart.

Figurative meaning: A fixed meaning of a word that is generated by the analogy of this word.

Figurative meaning is the meaning of a certain meaning of the original Chinese character that arises from metaphor, and it is also an extended meaning.

Figurative meaning refers to the fact that the object of the metaphor is very clear and very similar to the object, and the common features of the two are generally intuitive and can be easily understood. The extended meaning will be more abstract, and it will be derived according to the similar characteristics of one aspect of the two, and if you are not familiar with the specific characteristics of the extended thing, you will not be able to understand the meaning to be extended.

For example, "wheel" is a wheeled with spokes, which can rotate, from which the meaning of "shift", "rotation", and "turn" arises, and it is changed from a noun to a verb.

Basic Introduction:

The original meaning of a Chinese character (word) is derived from the metaphor of the juxtaposition. It is also an extended meaning. For example, "wheel" is a wheel with spokes, which can rotate, and thus the nuclear meaning of "shift", "rotation", and "turn" arises, which is figuratively changed from a noun to a verb.

Similarly, "drum" is a musical instrument, round and hollow, the original meaning is a noun, and it is used to protrude and raise the meaning, such as "drum out" and "drum up", and turn it into a verb, which is also a metaphor.

A metaphor is a figure of speech. Figurative couplets are more commonly known, and metaphorical techniques are to use a familiar thing or phenomenon to show the nature of such things and inspire people to think. Or it is to turn some more abstract noun concepts into concrete images to infect people.

A metaphor is an analogy that compares one thing to another according to the similarities between things, makes abstract things concrete, and makes profound truths simple.

Introduction to the metaphorical classification:

Metaphors are generally divided into three categories: similes, metaphors (metaphors), and metaphors.

1. Simile.

Ontology, metaphor, and metaphor appear at the same time.

Commonly used metaphors are: like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

Example: He doesn't move, as if he were a stone statue.

ontology) (metaphor) (metaphor).

2. Metaphor [metaphor].

The ontology and metaphor appear at the same time, but the metaphor of the likeness is replaced by the series of words such as is, become, become, become, and become.

Example: Mother! You are the lotus leaf, I am the red lotus.

ontology) (metaphor) (ontology) (metaphor repentance).

3. Metaphors.

The ontology and metaphor do not appear simply, and the metaphor is directly used to replace the ontology.

Example: There is a gray curtain in the sky.

The gray curtain is the metaphor. The ontology is black clouds , but it is not written. )

Figurative meaning: the meaning of the original meaning of the Chinese character or the word of the late sock changer due to the metaphor. Parables are also an extension.

For example: 1. "Wheel" can be rotated, which gives rise to the meaning of "shift", "good relatives rotation", and "turn", which is changed from a noun to a verb, which is a metaphorical meaning.

2. The word "tail" originally referred to "the part of the animal's body that protrudes from the end", and the figurative meaning of "tail" refers to "the residual part", or "the person who follows others".

1. Metaphor is a commonly used rhetorical device, which uses thing B that has similarities with thing A to describe or explain thing A, which is one of the cases of rhetoric. It is also called "parable" and "analogy", and in ancient China it was called "bi" or "譬 ("pi").

2. The famous literary theorist Jonathan Kahler's definition of metaphor: metaphor is a basic way of knowing, knowing one thing by seeing it as another. That is to say, to find the common ground between thing A and thing B, to discover the characteristics that are implicit in thing A and things B, and to have a new understanding of thing A that is different from the usual.
