Abstract

Meanings of terms in this group are motivated by meanings of other terms according to their similarity or logical relation. This group comprises terms having metaphorical or metonymical relations. The subgroup of metonymical terms consists mostly of polysemous terms with whole-part relations (gryčia 'one end of a dwelling house' LKA I 34, LKŽe - 'a whole dwelling house' LKA I 34). The subgroup of polysemous terms with metaphorical relations consists of ordinary terms and metaphorical terms of building which have similarity of form (čerpė 'tile for stove building' LKŽe - 'niche in the wall of a stove' LKŽe), purpose (durelės 'the back door of a dwelling house' LKŽe - 'stove door' LKŽe) or composition (grendymas 'clay floor' LKA I 37 - 'stove floor' LKA I 43).

Derived homonyms with phonetic congruence of root or stem prevail in the group of homonymous terms: lipinė (< lipti 'to stick to something' LKŽe) 'a small cottage stuck together from various bits' LKŽe - lipinė (< lipti 'to step o
