Paperback. Natural Language Semantics discusses fundamental concepts for linguistic semantics. This book combines theoretical explanations of several methods of inquiry with detailed semantic analysis and emphasises the philosophy that semantics is about meaning in human languages and that linguistic meaning is cognitively and functionally motivated. This volume offers an introduction to the field of semantics and provides coverage of the main perspectives. The underlying theme is that meanings are cognitively motivated and that expressing them through language is an essential means of cementing human bonding and of displaying it to others.
