Abstract

Imagery-Topology in Grammar Construction and Lexical Semantic Structure

Jia Junwen*

This study investigates the complex interplay between cognitive and linguistic realms, introducing the imagerytopology hypothesis as a cornerstone in understanding language. We aim to uncover the role of topology-imagery in shaping universal lexical semantics, grammatical structures, and the integration of cultural elements in linguistic frameworks. Employing this hypothesis, we analyze the spatial aspects in lexical meanings, explore spatial arrangement in grammatical structures, and examine cultural influences within linguistic models. Our findings highlight the vital role of imagery- topology in cognitive development and their significant impact on language comprehension. The study presents two novel models conceptualized through the prism of language’s imagerytopology, which serve as robust tools for tackling complexities in universal linguistics.
