使用隐喻

It can be inferred from the analysis of the two languages that people employ things they are familiar with to refer to abstract concepts, for example, the spatial concepts of UP and DOWN can be used for abstract concepts like NUMBER, STATUS, QUALITY etc.

两种语言中UP，DOWN空间概念的使用是人们遵循"近取诸身，远取诸物"的原则，将空间域的概念投射到数量，社会地位，情绪状态以及好坏等抽象概念域，以减小认知难度的结果。隐喻的使用和理解符合人类认知的普遍规律。
