Introduction Recent years have witnessed an upsurge of interest in metonymy. From cognitive to computational linguistics, researchers have finally realized that metonymy is ubiquitous in everyday language and that it constitutes an important focus of research. In cognitive linguistics, this has given rise to detailed studies of metonymy as a cognitive phenomenon (Kövecses and Radden, 1998; Peir...

I have spent the last few years of my life presenting papers on the ways in which cognitive science in general and linguistics in particular can inform research in Information Systems (IS). The works originate firmly in the “Chomskian”1 tradition of linguistics, contrary to the general theme of the workshop. But do we really need to take sides in the generative vs. cognitive linguistics debate?...

In this paper I aim at sketching out in bare outline a new model/framework of language processing with its implications for natural language processing. Research in theoretical linguistics, computational linguistics and mathematical linguistics has delineated the ways natural language can be represented and modeled. Studies in cognitive (neuro)science, on the other hand, have shown how language...

Cognitive linguistics has reached a stage of maturity where many researchers are looking for an explicit formal grounding of their work. Unfortunately, most current models of deep language processing incorporate assumptions from generative grammar that are at odds with the cognitive movement in linguistics. This demonstration shows how Fluid Construction Grammar (FCG), a fully operational and b...

Most schools of linguistics have their foundations in a study of the syntax and semantics of individual sentences. Cognitive linguistics is to some extent no exception: while it has always devoted considerable attention to the conceptual aspects of linguistic meaning and to the study of language in use, the focus of research has still traditionally been on single sentences or propositions rathe...
