The metaphors were identified by searching for three keywords from the field of economy and politics (austeridade-austeridad-austerity, corte-recorte-cut and divida-deuda-debt) and were then classified according to the type of schema they instantiate, namely, propositional schema, image schema or event schema.

A greater part of the paper is devoted to a brief overview of the ten prob…

In the year 2012 – for the first time in the history of mankind – international tourist arrivals exceeded the milestone of one billion tourists globally, and within merely the 20 years’ time, i.e. between 1995 and 2015, the number of people travelling abroad as tourists more than d o u b l e d.

The paper deals with geographical names in Silesia deriving from shrub species names. An analysis of the names derived from appellatives allows for a reconstruction of the categorization methods of the world, anthropological conceptualization and a popular image of reality. Name creators choose those names from the existing collection of the names derived from the appellatives which are for certain reasons important and valuable for them. For example, the following names of shrubs become a productive toponymic base: hazel, blueberry, rose; they belong to the basic categorization level and are important for the rural community due to their usable and practical significance (in construction a…
