Suggestive images in language metaphors

metaphor in modern scientific discourse is perceived not only as an artistic trope, but also as one of the foundations of natural human cognitive abilities. This paper examines the suggestive impact of linguistic metaphors. The article examines the suggestive, autosuggestive functions of metaphors in the works of A. Platonov. Issues of psycho- and neuroprogramming through artistic images are raised. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the study of the figurative potential of metaphor on the consciousness and subconscious of readers (listeners). The purpose of the study is to prove the suggestive nature of metaphors using fiction as an example, to study their connection with figurative, associative thinking in line with cognitive theory. During the study, we faced the following tasks: 1) to explore the method of implementing suggestion in metaphors; 2) to identify and describe the bases for the impact of metaphors on the reader's attitudes; 3) to describe the methods (mechanisms) of implementing suggestive metaphors in the text. The result of the study was the identification and description of the suggestive functions of metaphor, analysis of the methods of its implementation and manifestation in the text.
