and we have begun our work identifying the concept of metaphor linguistically and
idiomatically, then we indicated its multiple divisions that we have found mentally

linguistically divided into metaphor, and expedite metaphor, then we moved to talk about
its impact on the language, which manifests itself into two types: direct rhetorical, and
indirect linguistic as a factor of linguistic expansion through its contribution to the
formation of semantic relations, in addition to its role in the semantic evolution of the
language words and their meanings to cope with the requirements and developments of
life, by addressing some examples on the base of mentioning but not limitation, and we
studied some words analytically showing the effect of metaphor on their development, and
how we currently use them, then comes the findings of the research.
