Abstract: The acknowledgement of metaphor as a figurative element of speech is dealt with as a criterion of truthfulness per se. Knowing linguistic markers (as they say, as though, a sort of, a kind of, practically, rather, so to speak) accompanying metaphors, may significantly facilitate the identification of truthfulness of speech expressions.
Keywords: metaphor, metaphoric markers, truthfulness, concept, frame
