"abstract": "To what degree do different languages share similar conceptual metaphors? Charteris-Black and Ennis (2001) examined this question by running a comparative, corpus-based study of metaphors in Spanish and English financial reporting. They argue that both languages show considerable similarity in the choice of conceptual metaphors with the same linguistic expressions but that there is a differing degree of frequency. They attribute this similarity to the common cultural identity of the two languages such as the similar economic system and their Latinate origins. In this paper, we use a corpus-based approach in comparing the choice of conceptual metaphors in Mandarin Chinese with those of Spanish and English. We focus our discussion on the conceptual metaphor STOCK MARKET IS OCEAN WATER in Mandarin Chinese and compare it with the Spanish and English data. We carry out our analysis within the framework of the Conceptual Mapping (CM) Model (Ahrens 2002). With this model, we are able to demonstrate that although different languages share similar conceptual metaphors, they differ in what is mapped linguistically. These differences can be shown in their specific Mapping Principles.", |

"text": "The language of economy frequently involves conceptual metaphors. Charteris-Black (2000) , for instance, suggested that the metaphoric lexis in the Economist were higher in frequency than in a general magazine. In describing the movement of the economy, in particular, there are expressions relating to the directions of the economic situation (up and down) and the speed of the economic development (Chung, Ahrens and Huang, 2003b) . In this paper, two Mandarin Chinese newspaper corpora will be examined in terms of occurrences of conceptual metaphors related to the target domain of gushi 'ti r -fy 'STOCK MARICET.' Among the recurring metaphors found, the metaphor STOCK MARKET IS OCEAN WATER constitutes the majority of the linguistic expressions. This paper focuses on this conceptual metaphor and compares it with the English and Spanish data analyzed by Charteris-Black and Ennis (2001) .", |

"text": "The CM Model is a model based within the Contemporary Theory of Metaphor (Lakoff and Johnson 1980, Lakoff 1993) , and shares with it the idea that metaphors have systematic source to target domain pairing. However, it goes beyond the CTM to postulate that the systematic pairings are principled and that these principles can be formulated from a linguistic analysis of the conventional metaphorical expressions (Ahrens 2002) . For instance, using the CM Model, Ahrens (2002) analyzed IDEA AS BUILDING via five main stages. First, within the target domain of IDEA, native speakers generated all items related to IDEA. Then, these items were categorized into similar source domains such as BUILDING and FOOD. Third, for each source domain, three questions were asked in order to generate the conceptual real world knowledge regarding this source domain. These questions are as follows (with sample answers taken from Ahrens' analysis for IDEA AS BUILDING in Mandarin Chinese):", |

"text": "The fourth stage involved filtering out non-conventional expressions obtained in stage one. At the fifth stage, the actual mappings between IDEA and BUILDING were compared with what could possibly be mapped in the real world. By comparing the linguistic data (obtained at stage one) with the expressions from the real world knowledge, one can postulate why a target domain uses a particular source domain. For IDEA AS BUILDING in Mandarin Chinese, the following examples were given (Ahrens, 2002: 277-278 Chinese often selects the source domain of BUILDING (jiagou vfo 'framework,' genji 'base' and jiangou gts `build'). These linguistic expressions comprise Entities (nouns), Functions (verbs) and Qualities (adjectives). Based on the examples such as (1) to (3), Ahrens (2002:279) postulated that \"the target domain of IDEA uses the source domain of BUILDING in order to emphasize that concept of structure.\" To put this correspondence in formal wordings, a 'Mapping Principle' was proposed. This mapping principle provides the reason underlying the mapping of source to target domains. For IDEA AS BUILDING, the mapping principle is as follow (Ahrens 2002: 279) :", |

"text": "Idea (originally capitalized) is understood as building because buildings involve a (physical) structure and ideas involve an (abstract) structure. Huang (2003a, 2003b) have looked at economy metaphors occurring within the source domains of PERSON and TRANSPORTATION DEVICE (such as MOVING VEHICLES and AEROPLANE) respectively. They suggested that the most prototypical mappings in the corpora for these conceptual metaphors are used in formulating the Mapping Principle. This paper also adopts an empirical analysis of corpora by formulating Mapping Principle from the most frequent mappings in the Mandarin Chinese corpora. Both of these sources provide news reported in Taiwan over roughly the same period of time as Charteris-Black and Ennis's (2001) corpora. The search for huashishingwen (WEVIIMM) was limited to the front page news but the search for gungshangshibao (Inli4C) covered all the sections of the newspaper. A total of 120 financial reports were collected from these two sources. Among the 120 financial reports collected, 22 articles were taken from the huashishingwen spoken data (accompanied by written reports and the analysis was based on the written reports) and 98 were taken from gungshangshibao. These two corpora contain 97,156 characters (with MSW word count). This amount of characters was divided by 1.4 to make the Chinese characters comparable to words citation. This produced 69, 397 words in total.", |

For instance, the term tocar fondo 'bottom out' is neither 'nautical' nor 'ways of moving in the water.' The word ancla 'anchor' is also found in the English data which has been re-categorized under the source domain of BOAT. The shaded expressions in Table 5 may relate to OCEAN WATER. However, since we are not provided with the full sentence, we assume that these terms are referring to the stock market. From the limited expressions provided in Table 4 , we can only deduce that the Spanish may emphasize on the unpredictability of OCEAN (except for ancla 'anchor,' which belongs to BOAT). Our recategorization of these terms is shown in Table 6 . Similar with the category of STOCK MARKET IS OCEAN WATER in English, both the conceptual metaphors in Table 6 are too few in frequency to generate a mapping principle for these metaphors. However, the re-analysis of the English and Spanish data have shown that the terms listed in the source domain of MARKET MOVEMENTS ARE NAUTICAL OR ARE WAYS OF MOVING IN THE WATER are not coherent members of the categories.

Based on the data of Mandarin Chinese data and the Wall Street Journal 1994, English shares similar mapping with Mandarin Chinese when the source domain of OCEAN WATER is used. The Spanish data are too few to make comparisons in terms of Mapping Principles. However, within the source domain of OCEAN WATER, all three languages display different linguistic expressions that are being mapped. The CM Model is advantaged in this aspect since it provides a bottom-up approach in tackling the conceptual metaphors from the linguistic expressions found in each language.", |

These specific linguistic aspects can be captured using the CM Model by specifying the source domain clearly and by extracting the relevant mapping principles across different languages. This is what sets the CM Model apart from the CTM. For future research, we will look into more instances of STOCK MARKET and its mappings with the source domains of BOAT and OCEAN in different languages. Our first step is to collect more English data from sources such as the ICAME and the Lancaster-Oslo/ Bergen (LOB) Corpora. Then we will proceed to look at other source domains such as NATURAL DISASTER.", |
