The remaining six lectures deal with semantic typology , the crosslinguistic study of how humans communicate about the world in terms of the meaning categories of the languages they speak. Together, the lectures present one of the first comprehensive introductions to either topic. A thread pervading the lectures involves the following questions: how much do languages vary in how they represent reality? To what extent does this variation reflect cultural differences? To what extent does it influence the nonverbal thinking of the speakers?. 410 0$aDistinguished Lectures in Cognitive Linguistics ;$v14. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xResearch$xMethodology 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xResearch$xMethodology. 676 $a410 700 $aBohnemeyer$b Ju?rgen$01787412 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964017203321 996 $aTen lectures on field semantics and semantic typology$94320851 997 $aUNINA
