Book Synopsis The Semantics of Russian 'about' Prepositions by : Andrew James Kier
Download or read book The Semantics of Russian 'about' Prepositions written by Andrew James Kier and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have also examined 'co-occurrence' examples, in which o+LOC and pro PP's occur in the same syntagma or sentence, both subordinate to the same verb. Close readings of these co-occurrences show that in many of them, the semantic/pragmatic opposition between the o+LOC and pro object referents is such that the former are presented as being larger in scope, and more analyzed than the pro entities.
Book Synopsis Russian Prepositional Phrases by : Marika Kalyuga
Download or read book Russian Prepositional Phrases written by Marika Kalyuga and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a comprehensive study of Russian prepositions, with a focus on expressing spatial characteristics. It primarily deals with how metaphorical and metonymical transfers motivate the use of Russian prepositional phrases, explaining the collocations of prepositional phrases with verbs as a realisation of a conceptual metaphor or a metonymy. The author confronts a problem that is attracting growing attention within present-day linguistics: the semantics of prepositions and cases. The book seeks to clarify the conceptual motivations for the use of the combinations of Russian primary prepositional phrases, as well as to demonstrate how their spatial meanings are extended into non-spatial domains. This book incorporates an analysis of a large number of items, including 30 combinations of primary prepositions with cases. An original contribution, the book is of interest to teachers and students studying Slavic languages, and to cognitive linguists.

Download or read book Adpositions written by Dennis Kurzon and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of articles which deal with adpositions in a variety of languages and from a number of perspectives. Not only does the book cover what is traditionally treated in studies from a European and Semitic orientation prepositions, but it presents studies on postpositions, too. The main languages dealt with in the collection are English, French and Hebrew, but there are articles devoted to other languages including Korean, Turkic languages, Armenian, Russian and Ukrainian. Adpositions are treated by some authors from a semantic perspective, by others as syntactic units, and a third group of authors distinguishes adpositions from the point of view of their pragmatic function. This work is of interest to students and researchers in theoretical and applied linguistics, as well as to those who have a special interest in any of the languages treated.
Book Synopsis The Semantics of English Prepositions by : Andrea Tyler
Download or read book The Semantics of English Prepositions written by Andrea Tyler and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-06-05 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a cognitive linguistics perspective, this book provides a comprehensive, theoretical analysis of the semantics of English prepositions. All English prepositions originally coded spatial relations between two physical entities; while retaining their original meaning, prepositions have also developed a rich set of non-spatial meanings. In this study, Tyler and Evans argue that all these meanings are systematically grounded in the nature of human spatio-physical experience. The original 'spatial scenes' provide the foundation for the extension of meaning from the spatial to the more abstract. This analysis articulates an alternative methodology that distinguishes between a conventional meaning and an interpretation produced for understanding the preposition in context, as well as establishing which of several competing senses should be taken as the primary sense. Together, the methodology and framework are sufficiently articulated to generate testable predictions and allow the analysis to be applied to additional prepositions.

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 with total page 390 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 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 De Gruyter Mouton. This book was released on 1993 with total page 546 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

Book Synopsis Prepositions in their Syntactic, Semantic and Pragmatic Context by : Susanne Feigenbaum
Download or read book Prepositions in their Syntactic, Semantic and Pragmatic Context written by Susanne Feigenbaum and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2002-08-22 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing interest in prepositions is reflected by this impressive collection of papers from leading scholars of various fields. The selected contributions of Prepositions in their Syntactic, Semantic and Pragmatic Context focus on the local and temporal semantics of prepositions in relation to their context, too. Following an introduction which puts this new approach into a thematical and historical perspective, the volume presents fifteen studies in the following areas: The semantics of space dynamics (mainly on French prepositions); Language acquisition (aphasia and code-switching); Artificial intelligence (mainly of English prepositions); Specific languages: Hebrew (from a number of perspectives — syntax, semiotics, and sociolinguistic impact on morphology), Maltese, the Melanesian English-based Creole Bislama, and Biblical translations into Judeo-Greek.
Book Synopsis Spatial Concepts in Slavic by : Ljiljana Šarić
Download or read book Spatial Concepts in Slavic written by Ljiljana Šarić and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2008 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is how Slavic languages represent spatial relations, and how spatial cognition and perception influence the understanding and linguistic coding of nonspatial domains. Individual analyses concentrate on the semantics of selected prepositions and cases in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian (B/C/S), providing a comparative perspective on other Slavic languages, primarily Russian and Polish. The opening analysis discusses the main theoretical notion - metaphorical extension - exemplifying the relation of spatial usages of linguistic items to non-spatial usages. This is followed by an analysis of the most basic spatial relations, "in-ness" and "on-ness." The meaning network of prepositions equivalent to on and in helps explain the meaning of the cases they combine with: the accusative and locative. Another crucial spatial relation, proximity, is taken into account in the semantic analysis of the B/C/S prepositions kod and pri, their Slavic equivalents, and cases they combine with: the genitive and locative. The next chapter deals with the spatial meaning of the dative case, examining dative's prepositional usages, the bare directional dative in B/C/S, and the semantic relation of the bare directional dative to other meaning domains of this case.
