Description

Explore the intersection of syntax, meaning, and human language in this scholarly volume from De Gruyter Mouton's Studies in Anthropological Linguistics series. This book examines syntactic iconicity - the relationship between linguistic form and semantic content - and investigates linguistic freezes, those fixed expressions that resist change and reveal fundamental patterns in how languages structure meaning. Ideal for linguists, anthropologists, and language researchers seeking to understand the cognitive and cultural foundations of human communication, this ninth volume in the series contributes original insights into why certain grammatical patterns persist across languages and how the human mind encodes meaning through structure. A valuable reference for academic libraries and professionals in linguistics, cognitive science, and related disciplines.

Focuses on syntactic iconicity, examining how linguistic structure mirrors and encodes meaning in human languages.
