Abstract
Cognitive linguistics has highlighted the tendency of human beings to understand reality through conceptual transfers between different domains, that can be conventional in the mind and create lexicalized expressions with a figurative value in every language. A cognitive approach to the study of phraseology variation will be proposed by taking into consideration a number of Italian phraseological units that refer to people whose mental faculties are in an altered condition, in order to determine their mutual conceptual correlation. Subsequently, the way in which the existence of the identified variants can influence the whole translation process will be studied, from their recognition and interpretation to their actual translation, as well as the translator’s cognitive effort. In this phase, Spanish and German will be considered as hypothetical target languages.
