摘要
Can sentences with metaphors be true? Is a metaphor always false? Are there metaphors true? Do metaphors have a value of truth? By means of the concept of semantic games of language this paper applies a special analysis to metaphors. By this tool, we can realize that when we accept a metaphor and the proposition in which it is presented, we are rolling a similar play to that when we take a statement as a true one. So it is possible to demonstrate that a metaphoric proposition can be true or false.
