چکیده مقاله
As many studies e g Lakoff & Johnson, 1980; Lakoff, 1998 have revealed metaphorical language is an essential part of human life, including language, thought and action Using body part terms provides a conceptual basis for shaping a relatively large number of conceptualizations in Persian Drawing on the tenets of Conceptual Metaphor Theory Lakoff & Johnson, 1983, 2003 This study aims to investigate 15000 Persian proverbs and 25000 Persian expressions in light of the body part Hand and the way it is realized metaphorically The results show that hand is conceptualized as being either equivalent to or the container of sentiments, sympathy, desires, tolerance, audacity, also thoughts and memories A set of Persian expressions also reflects conceptualizations of hand as the symbol of personality traits, character, and mood Generally, it appears that the body part hand provides a conceptual foundation for speakers of Persian to represent their cognitive, emotional, socio cultural, and linguistic experiences
