It outlines how semantic primes have been identified within and across languages, over several decades of empirical research, and how they can be used as a tool in lexical and grammatical typology and contrastive linguistics. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Contrastive Analysis in Language: Identifying Linguistic Units of Comparison, p. 13-43 | Publisher: | Palgrave Macmillan | Place of Publication: | Basingstoke, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9781403917249 1403917248 |
