Produktbeschreibung
The notion of sound symbolism has been highly
debated throughout the centuries. The phenomenon is
quite controversial and difficult to study for two
main reasons: first, because it is a vividly
symbolic field, and second, because these
phonosemantic meanings are reluctant to be molded in
a systematic way. In this work the intention of the
author has been to shed light on that controversy by
giving an overall view of the linguistics theories
of sound symbolism, as well as of its possible
categories; then listing some of the most remarkable
experiments conducted in this field; and finally
presenting some obvious evidence that proved to be
convincing for this author.
Autorenporträt
I was born in Hungary in 1979. I have got two beautiful sons and
a great husband. From my early childhood I showed great interest
in languages, obviously that is why I graduated as an English -
German language teacher. Somehow for me languages seem to be the
most logical and at the same time also magic games.
