Types of modification of the semantics of the original meaning during metonymic transfer

The article describes the types of modification of the original values when generating lexical metonymy. The contiguity of non-linguistic phenomena is reflected in the significant generality (contiguity) of meanings. However: the adjacency of values does not serve as a sufficient and reliable basis to qualify the value as metonymic; there must be other grounds for metonymy: modification of the value in a real modality, derivability and hierarchy of the value. The article describes 4 types of modification of the semantics of the original meaning with metonymic transfer.
