AB - This study examined and criticized the universality of conceptual metaphors through an inductive analysis on language data, which is an explanatory concept of cognitive linguistics. For this purpose, the universality of conceptual metaphors was doubted and disproved through actual language data. To deal with metaphors, elucidative method on verbal expression itself and reasoning inductively is needed. As well known, cognitive linguistics is based on experientialism which believes that human thoughts and understanding are from bodily action and an abstract thinking happens through metaphoric expansion. From the perspective of cognitive linguistics, abstract concepts are understood as physical ones or physical experience. Korean word ‘Maeum’(mind), for example, is also embodied. However, we take the universality and ubiquitousness of metaphors too easily. There is a tendency that we think the universality happens in every individual language. This study suggested that some of abstract concepts are literal and non-metaphoric by examining which verbs combine with the word ‘ma-eum’(Kor. mind), an abstract noun, statistically.
