A hypothesis that each 'kind' of animal as described in Noah's Ark's story and the creation story is a metaphor for a language-class; for instance nouns, verbs, adverbs, pronouns, and adjectives.
In trans nominalism (transnominalism) the creation story is a parable for the creation of language.

In other words, the "animals" are figures of speech for 'figures of speech.'
