Dent-Read ady, at 18 months of age, first used a metaphor when she said, "wawa," C her word for water, while pointing at a large skylight showing a blue sky. Previously, she had used "wawa" as adults use the word water. In the next two days she showed correct comprehension of the words sky (both as seen outdoors and as seen through windows and skylights) and water. When Cady was 3 years, 10 months old, she had been looking around at the trees and then up at the sky with small binoculars when she said, "The sky looks like the sea when I look through the 'myroscope'. " The changes in the metaphor include verbal specification of the topic, the sky, and an elaboration of the vehicle or figurative term water to sea bringing in the vast extent of the water that corresponds metaphorically to the extent of the sky. How can one explain such elaborations and differentiations in the course of development?
