Abstract

The most essential values of certain culture are closely connected with the metaphorical structure of the most essential concepts in language. Having analyzed the nature of metaphors and comparing Georgian and English metaphors we may come to the conclusion that the metaphors in these languages are both different and identical due to specific characteristics of Georgian and English cultures. This view was verified on the bases of specific examples.
