Semantic typology

Semantic typology is a fairly recent development in linguistics. Because of the problems of determining universals of sense discussed above, it often concentrates on the question of cross-linguistic regularities in denotation or extension. What is the range of possible variation shown by the world’s languages in the references of words for colours, body parts and basic actions? Are there any universal or widespread similarities in the boundaries between different words in each of these domains? Since serious cross-linguistic investigation of these questions has only begun recently, there is still only a small range of evidence available, and we will often be forced to exemplify points from the same handful of languages. Nevertheless, even the preliminary work done so far can disabuse us of any simplistic assumption of universalism: cross-linguistic variation in meaning is at least as great as variation in form. We will begin our survey of this question by looking at the way different languages refer to the human body.
