Semantics is composed meaning of language expressions and perceptions at the levels of words, phrase, sentence, paragraph, and essay. The basic unit of formal semantics is a concept as a formal model of words in a natural language. Cognitive linguistics focuses on cognitive semantics and its interaction with underlying syntactic structures. A denotational mathematics known as semantic algebra i...

The paper is an attempt to answer the question asked in Cognitive Semantics: Which experiential domain should be considered more fundamental or “ultimate”: space, object a human being? It argued that they represent three domains of behaviour identified by archaeologists (the technical domain, social relations, and natural history domain), consequently are equally ultimate. also ability project ...

Abstract Language is often approached as a self-contained system, one with its own specifically linguistic elements of organization, generally independent other systems in cognition. But by the analysis here, language shares parts organization cognition and could not function without their participation. For this analysis, heuristically divided into number cognitive faculties, each judged to pe...

conceptual metaphor is the most prominent achievements in cognitive linguistics and cognitive semantics. based on this theory, most of the parts of our vision system and mindset is naturally metaphorical, which structures our way of thinking and understanding. therefore, our understanding has strong relationship in all aspects, and since the ethical implications are naturally abstract, metaphor...

the semantic network of the preposition 'ba' in persian: a cognitive study as one of the widely used prepositions in persian, 'ba' (i.e. with) may also function as an adjective particle or affix. this paper studies various meanings of preposition 'ba' within a cognitive lexical semantics framework. it aims to show that the various meanings of this preposition do not emerge randomly. drawing the...

Fuzzy semantics comprehension and fuzzy inference are two of the central abilities of human brains that play a crucial role in thinking, perception, and problem solving. A formal methodology for rigorously describing and manipulating fuzzy semantics and fuzzy concepts is sought for bridging the gap between humans and cognitive fuzzy systems. A mathematical model of fuzzy concepts is created bas...

Pezzulo (2008, 2011) and Grush (2004) contend for embodied cognitive science but interpret representations of motor behaviors as grounded on predictive internal models; those representations are referring-based. By contrast, the present paper contends that the motor control is ground on both referring-based representation (as manifest in forward models) and non-referring-based representation (a...

The model of cognition developed in [4] seeks to unify two levels of description of the cognitive process: the connectionist and the symbolic. The theory developed brings together these two levels into the Integrated Connectionist/Symbolic Cognitive architecture (ICS). [2] draw a parallel with semantics where meaning may be modelled on both distributional and symbolic levels, developed by [3] i...
