Abstract

This paper aims at giving an overview of the multiple meanings of the Ancient Egyptian verb of gustatory perception ṭp ‘to taste’. Different mappings from physical onto emotional and mental domains are explained by metaphorical meaning extensions. Data from Ancient Egyptian, as a still under-represented language within studies on perceptual language, is analysed by methods from the fields of Ancient Studies and Cognitive Linguistics.
