Application domain: social cognition 330 $aIn this chapter I examine the ways in which languages encode the distinction between location and place, generally, and between objects and their uses in space, in particular. I develop a type-theoretic semantic formalism to model the notion of 'function', whether associated with a region or location on the one hand, or a class of objects, such as artifactual devices, on the other hand. The functional value of an object is encoded as a modal expression in the Telic role of the Qualia Structure associated with a lexical item. Finally, I illustrate how this representation helps explain the lingu 410 0$aHuman Cognitive Processing 606 $aCompetence and performance (Linguistics) 606 $aCommunicative competence 606 $aSpeech acts (Linguistics) 606 $aInteraction (Philosophy) 606 $aLinguistics$xMethodology 606 $aPsycholinguistics 615 0$aCompetence and performance (Linguistics) 615 0$aCommunicative competence. 615 0$aSpeech acts (Linguistics) 615 0$aInteraction (Philosophy) 615 0$aLinguistics$xMethodology. 615 0$aPsycholinguistics. 676 $a401/.4 676 $a401/.4 701 $aSchalley$b Andrea C.$f1972-$0302458 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973154303321 996 $aPractical theories and empirical practice$94344393 997 $aUNINA
