This is the first episode of a video series in which I present Cognitive Linguistics. What is cognitive linguistics? Is it a branch of psycholinguistics? Is it functional? About metaphor? Anti-Chomskyan? Find out for yourself!

I'm trying to make a shift from ELT with a keen interest in linguistics towards cognitive linguistics as my chosen field of study... and this video just gave me a clear big picture of what I'll be dealing with in that area. Thanks, Martin.

Very interesting. Thank you. The filing example. Before reading what? the rules for filing? or the report itself? Semantically ambiguous in its referential function to the world hence interactive communicative potential. Whatever way I could get in trouble with the boss. Lacking in cohesion if written. In both cases but in writing the functional does not strike as much as the formal.

I consider both "reading" sentences to be grammatically correct in English. As a native speaker, they both sound right to me, they just have a significant difference in meaning.

My question is, I guess, if I say there is a language, where the equivalence expression of 'I filed the report before reading' / 'This is the report that I filed before reading it' is grammatical; then, should a good generativist come up with a new rule and add it up to their universal grammar first, or should they actually do some sort of field study to find an instance of such a language first? I guess that's why I prefer cognitive linguistics over the generative one, because the latter has a basal logic flaw: you can not claim there is a homo-sapiens universal grammar for all languages, no matter how deep it is embedded pyschologically; while devriving all evidences you need from extant languages. Extant languages only form up a very small subset of all languages, which also includes extinct, died languages and future yet-to-realise, yet-to-branch languages. That is to say, the generatists can claim that, given enough time, not all kinds of word-soup (that we construct from all the extant datas) well finally be adopted in one or another language since there must be a set of constraints, ergo there must be a universal grammar; but if that's the case, on what ground it is to proof the universal grammar's being truely universal? Why one can not say what the generativists think is universal is actually both phenomenologically and logically 'selected'?

Hello sir. First of all, I really love your videos, I have been watching them and taking down notes and ideas... I would like to ask you a couple of questions. look, I am currently thinking about carring out a research on cognitive linguistics. What I want to analyse are the cognitive differences that exist between native Spanish speakers and English native speakers when using prepositions. The real thing is that cognitive linguistics is a very new topic to me, and I do not know whether my idea is viable. Could you recommend me some books or authors that could help me to start off with my investigation?, and from your point of view, does my investigation have a possible and measurable finding? Thanks in advance ¡¡¡ I hope you can shed some light on my doubts ¡¡¡

I think I know how to use a very short phrase to give people some idea of what the cognitive linguistics roughly is... It's a version of generative linguistics where all nouns are fundamentally considered as pronoun (and all verbs re-verbalized verbal nouns, maybe), the word 'book' means nothing more than a very limited and very specified version of 'it' that refers to something which is empirically and COGNITIVELY not a non-book (and if you do use it to refer a non-book, grammar is just a frame-work instrument, a formal premise, for those who know 'a book is a book' to know how to correct you)...And GENERATIVELY, I believe one can actually derive a somewhat rudimentary version of cognitive linguistics from the extant generative lingustics literature by adopting this variable...

The sentence 'I filed the report before reading' is not ungrammatical, if reading is understood in the sense that requires no direct object.
@davidjoseph7185
@davidjoseph7185 5 жыл бұрын
I just rewatched this part and saw that you stipulated the understanding that what was being read was the report. It seems unusual for me to call a sentence that is valid English in some contexts ungrammatical, but as I reconsider this, it seems that cognitive processes would flag the said sentence as invalid within the context, and what we call 'ungrammatical' might be in need of extension to cover 'grammatical but invalid'.

Stories are constructed by words. The universe is constructed by stories. Although he seems earnest in his political activism, I don't listen to Chomsky when it comes to linguistics. Postmodern age activism has a trend towards understanding the function of language to self-identity and world-concept. It seems strange to me that Chomsky the activist doesn't see or mention an aspect of social-construction in the 'white people' identity, which is a significant study of civil-rights activism.

Hello Huss, many thanks for your comment. There is quite a bit of syntactic work that starts with the observation that sentences like these are not grammatical. If you google "parasitic gaps", you will find some useful references.

Once you get to several levels of embedding like that, I'm afraid that my intuitions, which are a bit unreliable to begin with, start to fail completely. In the classic Engdahl 1983 paper, I think I agree maybe with half of the grammaticality judgments...
@hussfarsani8135
@hussfarsani8135 7 жыл бұрын
Interesting. To me, most of those sentences in the Wikipedia entry seem plausible - though of course I'm not a native speaker of English in the strictest sense of the word. Since they haven't been asterisked, I guess the author(s) find them grammatical (some start with single or double question marks, of course). I showed the sentence examples to two of my colleagues and they disagreed on the grammaticality issue as well. Seems like grammaticality judgments - like many other things - have to do with a person's psychology as well - how far they'd allow things - including grammatical variation - to happen without questioning ---(p) :D
