  • Iconicity

    Willy Van LangendonckBOOKThe Oxford Handbook of Cognitive…2010

    Iconicity can be contrasted with "arbitrariness." What we now call "iconicity" was until fairly recently restricted to mainly onomatopoeia. Accepting double articulation as an unchallengeable universal, John Haiman argues that there is no constant correlation between submorphemic sounds and meanings. This article argues with Haiman in maintaining that iconicity is not to be found primarily in the lexicon, at least not in the inventory of its root…

  • Theory and Typology of Proper Names

    Willy Van LangendonckBOOKTheory and Typology of Proper Names2007

    This book proposes a new synthesis of the functions of proper names, from a semantic, pragmatic and syntactic perspective. Proper names are approached constructionally, distinguishing prototypical uses from more marked ones such as those in which names are used as common nouns. Since what is traditionally regarded as 'the' class of names turns out to be only one possible function of name-forms (though a prototypical one), the notion of 'proprial …

  • Proper Names as the Prototypical Nominal Category

    Open AccessWilly Van LangendonckARTICLENames2007Referências: 2

    Proper names are the prototypical, unmarked nouns; they refer rather than describe or predicate as do common nouns. Proper names systematically appear in close appositional structures of such types as the poet Burns, Hurricane Edna, Fido the dog, the City of London, where they constitute the identifying unit, while common nouns in such appositional structures characterize the name. Proper names are definite, mostly countable, singular and nonrecu…

  • Neurolinguistic and syntactic evidence for basic level meaning in proper names

    Willy Van LangendonckARTICLEFunctions of Language1999

    This paper is intended to be an interdisciplinary investigation of the status of proper names, although it takes linguistics as its point of departure. In this study I will define proper names in terms of the currently developing Radical Construction Grammar, as promoted by Croft (to appear). Starting from the referential and semantic functions of proper names, I discuss the opposing theses of the language philosophers John Searle and Saul Kripke…

  • The Dative

    Willy Van Langendonck, William Van BelleBOOKThe Dative1998

    This book is the second part of a two-volume reader on the ‘Dative’. In the first part, which appeared in 1996, eleven papers were presented providing a syntactic and semantic description of the category ‘Dative’ in eleven languages. The aim of this second part is to discuss several aspects of the Dative in greater detail. It contains eight papers dealing with theoretical considerations on ‘dativity’ as well as with contrastive, typological and d…

  • The Dative

    David H Tuggy, William Van Belle et al.BOOKThe Dative1996

    Since antiquity, scholars have been fascinated by the phenomena of case. The explanation for this fascination is, as Hjelmslev already pointed out over fifty years ago, the fact that he who can unravel the meaning of case-relations, has the key to language structure as a whole. For over three years, a team of twenty scholars affiliated with the Linguistics Department of Leuven University in Belgium has concentrated on case phenomena in different …
