Abstract: This article applies the theory of cognitive metaphor to explaining spatial concepts and time metaphors in actual use in the Mandarin Chinese and Thai languages. The preliminary analysis indicates that the spatial concepts of “Qian” (front) and “Hou” (back) can be all used as time metaphors in Mandarin Chinese and Thai. Therefore, this article focuses on the study of the similarities and differences between Qian and Hou in Mandarin Chinese and [naː41]and [laŋ24] in Thai. Hopefully, the research results will be beneficial in teaching Mandarin Chinese and Thai to foreigners.
