Abstract:

The study of habitual structures within language involves understanding how habitual actions or states are expressed and interpreted across different linguistic systems. Habitual structures are linguistic constructions used to describe actions or situations that occur regularly or typically. These structures are a significant aspect of human cognition, as they help represent routine activities, customs, and recurring events. The analysis of habitual structures within the framework of cognitive linguistics and functional semantics provides a deep insight into how habituality is conceptually org

Abstract:

Cognitive linguistics, which emerged as a response io structuralist and generative approaches, places a strong emphasis on the relationship between language, thought, and human experience. This field views language not as an autonomous structure governed solely by formal rules but as a dynamic and integral part of human cognition. In modern linguistic studies, cognitive approaches have gained significant attention due to their ability to explain how language reflects and shapes human conceptualization of the world. These approaches emphasize meaning construction, mental representations, and em

Abstract:

Common claims within cognitive semantics (e.g. Johnson 1987; Lakoff 1987; Langacker 1987) are that “the most fundamental issue in linguistic theory is the nature of meaning” and “meaning is a matter of conceptualization”. But the latter claim creates a problem. On the one hand, for many cognitive semanticists conceptualization takes place under the level of consciousness. On the other hand, semantic analysis is carried out on the level of consciousness, namely by means of (conscious) intuition-cum-introspection. What is, then, meaning? As Wittgenstein argues, meaning is use, understood as a we

Abstract:

AbstractJones recognizes the existence of “primitives of conceptual structures,” out of which “local representations of kinship are constructed.” NSM semantics has identified these primitives through a cross-linguistic search for lexical universals (“NSM” stands for Natural Semantic Metalanguage and also for the corresponding linguistic theory). These empirical universals provide, I argue, a better bridge between cognitive anthropology and evolutionary psychology than the abstract constructs of OT, with dubious claim to conceptual reality.

<strong>ABSTRACT</strong> The paper focuses on the model of situation concept – a representation that constitutes the basis for comparison (tertium comparationis) in contrasting the semantics of lexical items in related and non-related languages. The expediency of using the model of situation concept as the basis for comparison agrees with an assumption of universality and uniqueness of situation conceptualization. From this viewpoint, the content of a linguistic item’s semantics is viewed within the dialectics of relations between the universality of human cognition and the unique

Contemporary semantics has uncovered a sophisticated typology of linguistic inferences, characterized by their conversational status and their behavior in complex sentences. This typology is usually thought to be specific to language and in part lexically encoded in the meanings of words. We argue that it is neither. Using a method involving “composite” utterances that include normal words alongside novel nonlinguistic iconic representations (gestures and animations), we observe successful “one-shot learning” of linguistic meanings, with four of the main inference types (implicatures, presuppo

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the semantic-cognitive analysis of the meaning of the word ‘content’. The scientific novelty of the work is seen in the fact that in the linguistic literature there are no studies in which a semantic-cognitive description of the meaning of the word ‘content’ is presented. The results of a comparative analysis of the formal-logical and psycholinguistic study of the semantics of the word ‘content’ are presented. In the course of the study, a discrepancy was found between the lexicographic description and the psychological representation of concepts associated with discr

Abstract:

Abstract In this paper, I argue that even if the Hard Problem of Content, as identified by Hutto and Myin, is important, it was already solved in naturalized semantics, and satisfactory solutions to the problem do not rely merely on the notion of information as covariance. I point out that Hutto and Myin have double standards for linguistic and mental representation, which leads to a peculiar inconsistency. Were they to apply the same standards to basic and linguistic minds, they would either have to embrace representationalism or turn to semantic nihilism, which is, as I argue, an unstable an

Abstract:

At the present stage of development of the linguistic and linguo-didactic sciences, cognitive-functional studies are very relevant, allowing us to understand the mechanisms for implementing the deep semantics of linguistic units. This circumstance is quite explicable: if in the previous structural scientific paradigm, linguistics was aimed at obtaining an answer to the question how, then with the current, anthropocentric approach, he is interested in the question why? The impossibility of achieving this goal without the inclusion of the linguistic personality in scientific research is obvious,

Abstract:

This paper delves into the integration of phraseology and cognitive linguistics, using a comparative corpus-based analysis of idiomatic locutions concerning weddings and marriage in English and Spanish. Within a cognitive phraseology framework, the research focuses on their formal and semantic fixation and complexity, and examines their metaphorical motivation. By doing so, it addresses a significant gap in literature, facilitating deeper insights into linguistic and cultural representations of love and wedding traditions. Ultimately, this study advocates for further exploration of marriage id

Abstract:

An influential view in philosophy and linguistics equates the meaning of a sentence to the conditions under which it is true. But it has been argued that this truth-conditional view is too rigid and that meaning is inherently gradient and revolves around prototypes. Neither of these abstract semantic theories makes direct predictions about quantitative aspects of language use. Hence, we compare these semantic theories empirically by applying probabilistic pragmatic models as a link function connecting linguistic meaning and language use. We consider the use of quantity words (e.g., “some,” “al

Abstract:

The concept of ugliness, often perceived as a subjective judgment, plays a significant role in lexical semantics, shaping how language conveys perceptions of physical, moral, and aesthetic dissonance. This analysis explores the semantic structures and connotations of "ugliness" within various lexical fields, examining its representation in dictionaries, everyday language, and literary texts. By drawing on insights from cognitive linguistics, sociolinguistics, and cultural studies, the paper investigates how linguistic markers of ugliness go beyond mere physical appearances to include aspects o

Abstract:

Computer science offers an analogy which throws some light on the description of the processing of language in understanding. On the one hand, a compiler is a programme which «translates» a developed language into machine language, and, on the other hand, understanding a sentence implies the use of a compiler to carry out the linguistic operations triggered by the sentence programme, i.e., by the structure of operators and operands manifested by the sentence. Where as the compiler translates the external programme into an internal, machine-specific representation, understanding a sentence cons
