Abstract
Referencing the conceptual metaphor theory (Lakoff y Johnson, 1980), we try to describe in this article the verbal units that are used metaphorically in journalistic language, as introducing narrative speech. Different verbs are used: atacar, defender, desmontar, desgranar, enhebrar, hilvanar, lanzar, tildar, zanjar, and so on. The corpus of this study was in the online edition of three most important Spanish newspapers (ABC, El País y El Mundo) and it included a period between 2012 and 2015. Results show, on one hand, that metaphor stands for being an intermediate link which supposes a meaning change in such verbs with respect to the chosen arguments, and, on the other hand, a kind of regularity seems to be typical for semantic transposition
