Cognitive Linguistics and Non-Indo-European Languages / Edition 1

by Eugene H. Casad, Gary B. Palmer

Overview

This book applies the theory of cognitive linguistics to the analysis of a variety of grammatical phenomena in non-Indo-European languages. In previous studies of languages from non-Indo-European families, cognitive linguistics has been remarkably useful in explaining non-prototypical structures as well as more common ones. The book expands that effort into a new set of families and languages.
