The objectives of this research are to analyze what types the metaphor are employed in the Elemental: Forces of Nature movie and reveal the reasons behind its uses by the writer based on general cultural experiences, thoughts, and perspective. The research methodology employed in this research is descriptive qualitative. In analizing the data, the researcher uses the theory that is proposed by Lakoff (2003) about conceptual metaphor theory to identify the types of met

Ontological Metaphors (54%) dominate the speech to allow complex ideas such as national unity and progress to be conceptualized as physical entities to make his message more relatable and emotionally com

Abstract:
The high pragmatic potential of conceptual metaphors is due to their suggestive and estimated load. The use of laconic metaphorical expression allows the author not only to designate a certain micro-event, but also to express his assessment, which is largely implicit and which can change the attitude of the audience towards a real event.

The formalization includes eight stages of the self-organization process, absolute and relative spatial interpretation of each stage, and a set of urban planning functions for each stage.
