| Description | The paper investigates how use of metaphor in eulogistic idioms is influenced by the religion of the deceased in a multi-religious society. In particular, I will show how the conceptualization invoked by the use of idioms reflects the worldview that is specific to the family of a deceased of a certain religion. |
