Abstract This study investigates the conceptualisation of tolerance via metaphors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) press media after proclaiming 2019 as the ‘Year of Tolerance’. The results revealed that various source domains are used to conceptualise tolerance, reflecting certain aspects of the Emirati culture and affecting the Emirati cultural model of tolerance. There are three types of experience working together to shape the formation of conceptual metaphors of tolerance: firstly, bodily experience which emerges from human cognitive embodiment. Secondly, this bodily experience mingles with cultural experience in the Emirati context, which suggests that embodiment is socioculturally grounded. Finally, there is linguistic experience which is inherited by its speakers as part of their cognitive and cultural heritage.

阿联酋新闻媒体中的宽容概念化：以“宽容年”为例

摘要这项研究在宣布2019年为``宽容年''之后，通过阿拉伯联合酋长国（UAE）新闻媒体通过隐喻来研究宽容的概念。结果表明，各种来源领域都用于容忍的概念化，反映了阿联酋文化的某些方面并影响了阿联酋文化的容忍模式。有三种类型的经验共同作用以塑造宽容的概念隐喻的形成：首先，身体的经验从人类的认知体现中浮现出来。其次，这种身体体验与阿联酋语境中的文化经验交织在一起，这表明这种体现是基于社会文化的。最后，演讲者会继承语言经验，并将其作为认知和文化遗产的一部分。
