When one metaphor is the cause of the main metaphor, that is a paramparita 谤奴辫补办补 (consequential metaphors, i.e. one metaphor causes the other). The causal metaphor is either paronomastic or nonparonomastic.

If the superimposition of some other thing is the cause of the superimposition of another sameness of identity unto the contextual thing (辫谤补办峁泃补), then the two metaphors as a whole are called paramparita 谤奴辫补办补. It has two varieties, since the word literally expressive of the other thing is either paronomastic or nonparonomastic. And each paramparita is either single (one pair) or serial. Thus there are four kinds of paramparita 谤奴辫补办补s.
Commentary:
The difference between a regular metaphor (苍颈谤补峁単补) and the main metaphor in a paramparita 谤奴辫补办补 is that the latter is far-fetched therefore it needs to be substantiated. In paramparita 谤奴辫补办补, often the main metaphor borders on an 耻迟辫谤别办峁Ｄ�.
