Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the conceptual metaphors of anger in Dashti dialect. The theoretical foundations of this study are based on the approach proposed by Lakoff and Johnson (1980) about the conceptual structure of metaphors and Kovecse's (2005) regarding the role of cultural patterns in metaphorical conceptualization. This study uses the method suggested by Stefanovich (2006) under the title of metaphorical pattern analysis. For this purpose, language expressions that convey the concept of anger were provided and analyzed through interviews with 45 speakers (40 years old and older) of Dashti region and also by observing the linguistic behaviors of the speakers of this region. The data of this study, in addition to showing common and universal source domains, clearly reveal the influence of factors that arise from the climatic and cultural experiences of the speakers of this region.
