The article discusses the interpretation of metaphors in cognitive linguistics. Metaphors are the art of describing the body, reality, matter in different words, and its roots go back to ancient times, changes as a result of political processes. Over the centuries, interest in metaphors has waned somewhat, as scholars have long viewed metaphors as simply describing an object, event, or reality under another name. But by the 20th century, after the anthropocentric approach to linguistic phenomena became widespread, a pragmatic, linguistic, and generally cognitive approach to metaphors was required among all aspects of language. The article discusses the opinions and views of scientists and researchers who lived in different eras regarding metaphors. At the same time, some metaphors are cognitively analyzed and the question of how to choose equivalents to represent them in translation is discussed.
