Özet:

Words are like codes that reveal the treasure of meaning buried deep within us. We express the feelings and thoughts that emerge within us through words, thus giving life to meaning. When wording reflects our inner meanings, it is referred to as word-to-meaning harmony. The Methodists call it dalalat of motaabakah/indication of signification conformity. If words indicate a part of the meaning within us, it is called dalalat of tadamun/indication of the inclusion. Because there is a causal relationship between words, words can occasionally go beyond literal meanings, which is also known as the dalalat of iltizam/indication of commitment. These are issues that are undoubtedly determined by the speaker or author. However, under certain conditions, the situation called muqtada al-hal/suitability of meaning for the situation and speaking in accordance with the form required by the situation are restricted. These conditions are expressed as rhetoric in the broadest sense. More specifically, the phenomenon of semantics deals with the use of words, their consequences, and the meanings they convey as truth or metaphor. Truth evokes the phenomenon of lexical meaning and is not the direct subject of rhetoric. However, using words to express meanings in addition to the literal meaning—namely, “metaphor”—constitutes the primary focus of our study. In this study, the classification of words used in terms of declaration science as “truth” and “metaphor,” metaphorical words, and the conditions under which the use of “metaphor” is more meaningful than “truth” are all highlighted.
