Book Synopsis English Prepositions by : R. M. W. Dixon
Download or read book English Prepositions written by R. M. W. Dixon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an integrated account of the main prepositions of English, outlining their various forms and illustrating contrastive senses. The three chapters in Part I delineate grammatical contexts of occurrence and special uses, exploring grammatical roles, phrasal verbs, and prepositional verbs respectively. In Part II, each chapter deals with a set of related prepositions, providing an integrated account of the meanings for each, and explaining how these are linked to their grammatical properties. There are two chapters on relational prepositions - principally of, for, by, and with - which have only minor reference to space or time. These are followed by seven chapters on prepositions whose basic meaning is spatial, with many extensions to abstract senses, and one that ties together the varied ways through which prepositions deal with time. The final chapter outlines how some people have attempted to prescribe how language should be used; it also covers dialect variation, foreign learners' errors, and prospects for the future. The book is written in Dixon's accustomed style - clear and well-organized, with easy-to-understand explanations, and with limited use of technical terms. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of the English language, including instructors of English as a second language.

Book Synopsis The Semantics of Prepositions by : Michel Aurnague & Laure Vieu
Download or read book The Semantics of Prepositions written by Michel Aurnague & Laure Vieu and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 1993 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reconsideration of the semantics of a lexical category--prepositions--that has recently witnessed a plethora of investigations. The volume approaches the issue first from a more general perspective, namely the extent to which insights into the meaning of prepositions give clues to the semantic structure of lexical units and its processing in general. It goes on to deal with the meaning of prepositions from the perspective of how natural language processing can benefit from the insights of theoretical linguistics, especially with respect to machine translation and image understanding. Most of the papers were originally presented at a workshop held in February 1990 at the Institut fur Angewandte Informationsforschung. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepositions are important in the exegesis of the Greek New Testament, but they are at the same time very slippery words because they can have so many nuances. While Prepositions and Theology in the Greek New Testament rejects the idea of a “theology of the prepositions,” it is a study of the numerous places in the Greek New Testament where prepositions contribute to the theological meaning of the text. Offered in the hope that it might encourage close study of the Greek text of the New Testament, its many features include the following: Coverage of all 17 “proper” and 42 “improper” prepositions Explores both literary and broader theological contexts Greek font—not transliteration—used throughout Comprehensive indexes to hundreds of verses, subjects, and Greek words Discussion of key repeated phrases that use a particular preposition

Book Synopsis On the Meaning of Prepositions and Cases by : Silvia Luraghi
Download or read book On the Meaning of Prepositions and Cases written by Silvia Luraghi and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2003-11-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepositions and cases constitute a fruitful field of research for semantics. The historical development of their meaning can shed light on the relations among the semantic roles of participants and on the organization of conceptual space. Ancient Greek allows an in-depth study of such development. The book, based on a wide, diachronically ordered corpus, aims at providing a usage-based analysis of possible patterns of semantic extension, including the mapping of abstract domains onto the concrete domain of space. An analysis of the Greek data further highlights the interplay between specific spatial relations and the internal structure of the entities involved, and shows how case semantics may account for differences on the referential level, rather than merely express clause internal relations. The first chapter contains a typologically based discussion of semantic roles, which sets the language-specific analysis in a wider framework, showing its general relevance and applicability.

Book Synopsis Unpacking Metaphor-related Prepositions in Political Discourse by : Mokhtar Ounis
Download or read book Unpacking Metaphor-related Prepositions in Political Discourse written by Mokhtar Ounis and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the context around why English prepositions are used in figurative language more frequently than nouns and verbs, using corpus-based evidence to examine the most often used prepositions and how they are employed and for what purpose. While research on cognitive approaches to metaphor has significantly expanded in recent decades, little attention has been paid to prepositions as vehicles of figurative language, owing to their polysemous, complex, and inconsistent nature. To bridge this gap, Ounis introduces an innovative conceptual framework that integrates conceptual metaphor theory, diachronic linguistics, and discourse pragmatics. Drawing upon an extensive corpus of American presidential inaugural addresses, this book considers the linguistic, conceptual, pragmatic, and contextual dimensions of English prepositions, revealing the fascinating interplay between language, culture, and cognition. This volume will be of interest to scholars in pragmatics, metaphor studies, English language, rhetoric studies, and historical linguistics.
