Abstract. This article explores the comparative aspect of metaphorical terms in linguistics. By examining the use of metaphors in various linguistic contexts, we aim to understand how these figurative expressions shape our understanding of language and its structure. The results reveal that metaphors play a crucial role in conceptualizing abstract linguistic concepts, facilitating communication, and reflecting cultural influences. The findings contribute to the ongoing discourse on the importance of metaphor in linguistic research and its potential implications for language pedagogy and cross-cultural communication.

Keywords: metaphor, linguistics, comparative analysis, figurative language, conceptual metaphor theory.
