Abstract

AbstractThis paper deals with different views of lexical semantics. The focus is on the relationship between lexical expressions and conceptual components. First the assumptions about lexicalization and decompositionality of concepts shared by the most semanticists are presented, followed by a discussion of the differences between two-level-semants and one-level-semantics. The final part is concentrated on the interpretation of conceptual components in situations of communication.KeywordsNatural KindSyntactic StructureConceptual StructureWord MeaningSemantic FormThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
