Then, the disctinctive features were used to determine the SOURCE DOMAIN and the TARGET DOMAIN of that metaphorical expression by using
the Conceptual Metaphor Theory CMT. This process was conducted by finding out set of correspondences mappings between the SOURCE DOMAIN and the
TARGET DOMAIN that fit with the metaphorical expression. The SOURCE DOMAIN and the TARGET DOMAIN were called metaphorical concept.
