The current condition of Indonesian State Own Enterprises (SOEs) has become the focus of various studies across fields. The studies extend from an economic perspective to legal aspects, but the study to address the SOEs condition from linguistics perspective has been overlooked. On the other hand, the study of conceptual metaphor in media discourse puts little attention on this particular issue, and plenty of studies of conceptual metaphor do not account for the effect of contextual aspects on the additional inferences of metaphor. This study attempts to fill the gaps by examining the news headlines reports on the current conditions of SOEs using metaphorical expressions. It will take a closer look at the conceptual metaphor STATE-OWNED ENTERPRISES ARE PATIENTS in Indonesian news headlines and conducting further investigation on how contextual aspects influence the additional metaphorical inferences. The study is qualitative with purposive sampling method; the data taken are ten news headlines from online media news which discuss the current improvement process and condition of SOEs using metaphorical expressions. Conceptual Metaphor Theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980) is the conceptual framework of this study. From ten news headlines analysed, three metaphorical framings to speak about the current condition of SOEs as if SOEs are patient, i.e.: SOEs is a sick patient with particular sickness, the government is a medical practitioner, and after treatment, SOEs is a healthy patient or a dying patient. The underlying conception of STATE-OWN ENTERPRISES ARE PATIENTS implies that there are still plenty outstanding actions to be taken to improve the SOEs' performance, not only to provide remedies but most importantly is to prevent the sickness. Furthermore, additional inferences may emerge from the same metaphorical expressions in a different situational context. The implication is, media or journalists should consider that unintended inferences may arise from a particular metaphorical expression which are not initially meant to.

Abstract. Metaphors often characterize prosocial actions and people as sweet. Three studies sought to explore whether conceptual metaphors of this type can provide insights into the prosocial trait of agreeableness and into daily life prosociality. Study 1 (n = 698) examined relationships between agreeableness and food taste preferences. Studies 2 (n = 66) and 3 (n = 132) utilized daily diary protocols. In Study 1, more agreeable people liked sweet foods to a greater extent. In Study 2, greater sweet food preferences predicted a stronger positive relationship between daily prosocial behaviors and positive affect, a pattern consistent with prosocial motivation. Finally, Study 3 found that daily prosocial feelings and behaviors varied positively with sweet food consumption in a manner that could not be ascribed to positive affect or self-control. Altogether, the findings encourage further efforts to extend conceptual metaphor theory to the domain of personality processes, in part by building on balance-related ideas.

The chapter reports on work concerned with the issue of how conceptual metaphor theory (CMT) functions as a link between culture and cognition. Three large areas are investigated to this effect. First, work on the interaction between conceptual metaphors, on the one hand, and folk and expert theories of emotion, on the other, is surveyed. Second, the issue of metaphorical universality and variation is addressed, together with that of the function of embodiment in metaphor. Third, a contextualist view of conceptual metaphors is proposed. The discussion of these issues leads to a new and integrated understanding of the role of metaphor and metonymy in creating cultural reality and that of metaphorical variation across and within cultures, as well as individuals.

The present paper examines the metaphorical and metonymical conceptualizations of the heart in Jordanian Arabic (JA) within the framework of Conceptual Metaphor Theory developed by Lakoff and Johnson (1980). The main aim is to explore how the human heart is conceptualized in JA, and to test the applicability of the different general cognitive mechanisms proposed by Niemeier (2003 and 2008) to those found in JA. The data were extracted from Idioms and Idiomatic Expressions in Levantine Arabic: Jordanian Dialect (Alzoubi, 2020), and other resources including articles, dissertations and books of Arabic proverbs. The findings revealed that all the four general cognitive mechanisms suggested by Niemeier (2003 and 2008) are applicable to JA. The findings also showed that the similarity derives from the universal aspects of the human body, which lends tremendous support to the embodiment hypothesis proposed by cognitive linguists.
