Świat zwierząt jako inspiracja dla rozwoju leksyki i frazeologii

Abstract

The contact with the animal kingdom has become the source of many observations for a human being. They refer to the way of behaving, moving, the appearance of the fauna representatives, their mutual relations or arrangements existing in animal families. Many of these perceptions have given rise to metaphors, comparisons and idioms that allow to describe people’s characters, relations between individuals, their looks and way of being in a very figurative, vivid and original way.
