Abstract. In the article the sound-symbolic metaphor based on sound symbolism is considered, and its role in the creation of new words is emphasized. A large number of examples confirm that the phenomenon under study arises from secondary associations on the basis of synesthetic cross modal abstraction, as a result of which the sounds of the word are capable of forming sound-symbolic metaphors.
Key words and phrases: звукосимволическая метафора, звуковой символизм, перекрестная синестетическая абстракция, sound-symbolic metaphor, sound symbolism, synesthetic cross modal abstraction
