Abstract

Metaphorical language use is examined in an analysis of Belorussian secondary nominations where names of objects, zoonyms, and botanical terms are utilized by speakers to express evaluative connotations about people. Instances of positive and negative evaluation are exemplified and the expressive-stylistic aspect of secondary nomination is addressed.
