Recognizing the profound influence of metaphor on cognitive constructs and linguistic representation, the study adopts a comparative analytical approach to uncover the metaphorical dimensions inherent in expressions related to time and space within these distinct linguistic frameworks. Through the examination of lexical and syntactic elements in both languages, the research aims to elucidate the subtle nuances and cultural variations that characterize the metaphorical richness of temporal and spatial discourse. By comparing Chinese and Italian linguistic structures, the study seeks to reveal commonalities and divergences in the metaphorical strategies used to express concepts related to space and time in these two languages. This comparative exploration not only contributes to a deeper understanding of the metaphorical nature embedded in Chinese and Italian discourse but also sheds light on the cultural and cognitive dimensions that shape these linguistic expressions. The findings of the study serve as a foundational exploration, paving the way for future in-depth investigations into the intricate interplay between language, metaphor, and cognition within the realms of temporal and spatial concepts in both the Chinese and Italian linguistic contexts.","PeriodicalId":510788,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistics and Communication Studies","volume":"256 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140282048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines Hallyu’s impact on their language acquisition and cultural identity formation, employing a mixed-methods approach that includes surveys and interviews. It investigates how Korean media, including K-dramas and K-pop, motivates Vietnamese youth to learn Korean and adopt cultural traits, reflecting broader trends in cultural globalization. Key findings indicate a marked increase in Korean language interest among Vietnamese youth, driven by media consumption. This engagement not only enhances language learning attitudes but also integrates Korean cultural elements into their daily lives, fostering community building around shared cultural interests. The study underscores the significance of non-Western media’s role in shaping global cultural and linguistic landscapes, highlighting Hallyu’s contribution to diversifying language education and cultural identity among global youth. This research provides valuable insights into the dynamics of media consumption, cultural globalization, and their implications for cultural identity and language learning.","PeriodicalId":510788,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistics and Communication Studies","volume":"42 35","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140276462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
