What conceptual metaphors do you guys have?
I recently realized that my conlang Mogahgo doesn't have any metaphors, so I decided to add some. I have, so far, only added 2 (both of which are very similar to each other).
All of them describe the difficulty of a task.
They are "Gisa gad's amo" which means "It's a long journey" but it essentially means "It is difficult". And the other is the negative of that, "gisa ge gad's amo" which means "It's easy".
Does your conlang have any conceptual metaphors like that? Because I need inspiration.
