Conlang Conference - Space and Time Metaphors
This week's show is about how we make sense of time by means of spatial metaphors. We have in previous episode talked about conceptual metaphors. In Chinese you do like previous is shang up and then next is down, they use that with some time words. So English has a little bit on the vertical axis tootoo. But there's other conceptual metaphors that happen in English as well.
