The analysis of metaphorical lexical units in science and technology provides evidence for their existence either as separate cases or as part of a corresponding conceptual metaphor. In conceptual metaphors, metaphorical expressions constitute productive patterns that unveil the mental mappings that support technical and scientific thought, proving to be a powerful device for conceptualization and a prolific driving force for language growth (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980).
