Book Synopsis Cognitive Foundations of Grammar by : Bernd Heine
Book excerpt: The author argues that, as the main function of language is to convey meaning, language structure must be considered with reference to this function. A treatment is provided of the ways in which structure and usage can be explained with reference to the processes underlying human conceptualization.
