Conventionality and linguistic domain(s) involved in the characterization of metonymies (for the creation of a detailed typology of metonymy)

| Universidad de Córdoba
This is the second of three chapters devoted to the presentation of a set of criteria included in a database resulting from a project on the characterization of conceptual metonymy. It discusses Fields 5 and 7 of the database entry model, concerning conventionality, either conceptual or conceptual and linguistic, and the linguistic levels where metonymies operate (grammatical rank, meaning, form, grammatical process, and function).
Keywords: database entry model, descriptive criteria, form, function, grammatical process, grammatical rank
