Overview

The basic tenet of cognitive linguistics is that every linguistic expression is a construal relation. The papers in this volume discuss specific linguistic units ranging from particles, case endings and prepositions to reflexives, modal auxiliaries, lexical verbs and constructions in a variety of languages which show that they play a role in the construction of meaning at every level of the sentence.
