A three-level approach to the semantics of space
Michel Aurnague,Laure Vieu +1 more
TL;DR: To analyze the semantics of some of these expressions, this work systematically looks for valid reasoning schemata involving them and enables the testing of the proposed formal system as well as the evaluation of the definitions obtained for the studied lexemes.
BookDOI
The Categorization of Spatial Entities in Language and Cognition
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the role of function, motion and saliency in the processing of the French Internal Localization Nouns avant/devant and characterizing categories of spatial entities: Formal ontology.
Les noms de localisation interne - Tentative de caractérisation sémantique à partir de données du basque et du français
TL;DR: In this article, the analysis of internal localization nouns (ILNs) is considered in the framework of the general studies on part-whole relations or meronomies, and it seems that ILNs diachronicly derive from component nouns and acquire, during such an evolution, semantic properties which make them real relational markers of spatial localization.
Book ChapterDOI
Part-of relations, functionality and dependence
Laure Vieu,Michel Aurnague +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the ontological categories of the arguments of a part-whole relation are analyzed and four cases of component-integral whole (CIW) relations are formally defined.
Journal ArticleDOI
How motion verbs are spatial: The spatial foundations of intransitive motion verbs in French
TL;DR: In this paper, a categorization of French intransitive verbs of change of relation and placement is proposed, which is based on the way these two notions interact in their semantics.
