| Title | Talking About Time in Russian and Finnish |
| Description | This study deals with how time is talked about
in Russian and Finnish. The study uses Functional Syntax
to investigate what meanings the speakers wish to convey
when talking about time, and conceptual metaphor theory
to explain why the expression of time are as they are.
The analysis is based on a material consisting of more
than 2,200 expressions of time.
This study introduces both theoretical and methodological novelties in the nature of material used, in developing empirical methodology for conceptual metaphor studies, in the exactness of defining the limits of different conceptual metaphors, and in seeking unity among the different sides of time. |
