Kim, Hyung-Sun & Kim, Baeg-seung. 2015. A Cognitive Approach to Polysemous Verbs: Lexical Networks of Make, Get, and Keep. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 40-3, 361-389. As a follow-up study of Kim & Kim (2011), this study attempts to examine the highly polysemous verbs make, get, and keep in addition to take in a cognitive perspective. The lexical network (LN) theory explains the relationship of multiple senses of a lexeme as a lexical network where senses are connected to each other by links. The LN models constructed from multiple senses of those three verbs identified from previous research are verified through corpora and cognitive experiments in an L1 vs. L2 setting. In searching for tangible evidence of the reality of lexical networks, the research design was motivated by the concept of prototypicality often defined by frequency and saliency. The frequency examination on the basis of a four-year compilation of the articles contributed to an English magazine revealed that the prototypical senses in the networks did not correspond to those that were most frequent in the data. On the other hand, the results of the saliency experiment that thirty L1 and fifty-five L2 speakers participated in concurred with the prototypical senses of the polysemous lexemes overall. Pedagogical implications from the L1 and L2 comparison are discussed as well. (Chosun University & Chonnam National University)
Abstract
Kim, Hyung-Sun & Kim, Baeg-seung. 2015. A Cognitive Approach to Polysemous Verbs: Lexical Networks of Make, Get, and Keep. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 40-3, 361-389. As a follow-up study of Kim & Kim (2011), this study attempts to examine the highly polysemous verbs make, get, and keep in addition to take in a cognitive perspective. The lexical network (LN) theory explains the relationship of multiple senses of a lexeme as a lexical network where senses are connected to each other by links. The LN models constructed from multiple senses of those three verbs identified from previous research are verified through corpora and cognitive experiments in an L1 vs. L2 setting.
