초록
This paper explores an in-depth examination of the polysemy of the English spatial preposition over within a cognitive linguistic framework. First we have reviewed Brugman's pioneering work and Lakoff's semantic network approach and pointed out that there are significant problems with their approaches. Next we have discussed Tyler and Evans's principled polysemy model to postulate a list of 15 distinct senses of the preposition over. Focusing on Tyler and Evans's analysis of the covering sense of over, we have discussed some merits and potential problems with their analysis. We have argued that the difference between two readings in cases involving over can be accounted for by distinguishing a focal from a disfocal perspective. We have showed that the covering sense of over is not a distinct sense but a context dependent use.

This paper explores an in-depth examination of the polysemy of the English spatial preposition over within a cognitive linguistic framework.

Focusing on Tyler and Evans's analysis of the covering sense of over, we have discussed some merits and potential problems with their analysis.
