Why is amethaphore called a methaphore?

The term "metaphor" comes from the Greek word "metaphora," which means "to transfer" or "to carry over." It describes a figure of speech where a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable, effectively transferring meaning from one context to another. This linguistic device allows for deeper understanding and vivid imagery by relating unfamiliar concepts to familiar ones. Thus, the name reflects the essence of its function in language.
