授業のねらい
The aim of this course is to understand the network structure of language from two points of view: the computational linguistics allows us to manipulate lexical association data where words are arranged according to their similarity of meaning; the cognitive linguistics focuses on the meaning processing in a more general theory of human behavior in which body and mind, action and perception, movement and imagery are all concerned.
