Bidirectional Transfer between Metaphorical Related Domains in Implicit Learning of Form-Meaning Connections
People can implicitly learn a connection between linguistic forms and meanings, for example between specific determiners (e.g. this, that...) and the type of nouns to which they apply. Li et al (2013) recently found that transfer of form-meaning connections from a concrete domain (height) to an abstract domain (power) was achieved in a metaphor-consistent way without awareness, showing that unc...
متن کاملImplicit learning of mappings between forms and metaphorical meanings.
Previous research has shown that people can implicitly acquire mappings between word forms and literal meanings (Williams, 2004, 2005). We argue, from the metaphor-representation and embodiment perspectives, that people can unconsciously establish mappings between word forms and not only literal but also metaphorical meanings. Using Williams' (2005) paradigm, we found that transfer of form-mean...
متن کاملForm-Meaning Asymmetries and Bidirectional Optimization
This paper discusses architectural aspects of various versions of bidirectional OT so far proposed, and their treatments of blocking and other phenomena involving asymmetric relationships between form and meaning. The models to be studied here are the strong and weak bidirectional OT of Blutner (2000), and the asymmetric OT model of Wilson (2001). We show that each of these models provides at b...
متن کاملDimensions of Metaphorical Meaning
Recent work suggests that concreteness and imageability play an important role in the meanings of figurative expressions. We investigate this idea in several ways. First, we try to define more precisely the context within which a figurative expression may occur, by parsing a corpus annotated for metaphor. Next, we add both concreteness and imageability as “features” to the parsed metaphor corpu...
متن کاملMaking form-meaning connections while reading
This study was a qualitative exploration of the effect of multiple-choice glosses and periodic second language (L2) text reconstruction on lexical acquisition. L2 readers of German engaged in a think-aloud procedure while reading a short text and retelling its content in German after each of four short sections. In each section, four unfamiliar target words (TWs) were embedded. Half of the part...
