초록
This study investigates the concept of FOLLOW in Korean, English, and Korean Sign Language from a cognitive semantics perspective. By exploring how the concept FOLLOW extends across different languages, this paper identifies both similarities and differences in its semantic network. The analysis shows that in all three languages, FOLLOW originates from the prototypical meaning of physically trailing behind another entity, expanding into metaphorical domains such as imitation, adherence to rules, pursuit of values, temporal precedence, cause-and-effect relationships, logical inference and cognitive understanding. Some meaning differences are also detected in the three languages: Korean and English diverge depending on which direction meanings further develop and spoken & sign languages vary depending on which aspects of the prototypical meaning is emphasized. These findings contribute to the understanding of cross-linguistic variation in meaning extension and offer insights into how different languages emphasize various aspects of a concept’s prototypical meaning in the process of semantic extension.
