Morales Harley, Roberto
- Abstract
The paper proposes an etymological analysis of corpus of 51 words from Medical Terminology: Anatomy, Medicine, Biology, Zoology. It reviews the Greco-Roman origins of the words and offers a classification, based on the referents that, through metaphors, reveal themselves in the comparisons. The terms are divided into the following categories: "natural sphere" (vegetable, animal, heavenly), "cultural sphere" (clothing, dwelling, work, warfare, music) and "with component".
