 abstract = {The article studies the pragmatic function of metonymic phrases in the novel "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". The issue of studying metonymy in literature, especially in the fantasy genre, is key for readers in terms of perceiving the world and language of a literary work, and metonymy is also considered an excellent device of thinking in everyday life. First, this article explores the cognitive essence of metonymy in terms of Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". Based on this work, the cognitive meaning and lexical and stylistic potential of metonymy are studied. Thus, the cognitive nature of metonymy in J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" work can deeply contribute to the reader's understanding of the magical world of the work},
