Cognitive Grammar is a linguistic theory that has been developing since the late 1970s. The theory assumes that language is inherently symbolic and functions as a tool for speakers to connect sound structures with meaning structures. John R. Taylor offers an introduction to this theory by situating it within current theoretical discussions on the nature of linguistic knowledge and connecting it to broader trends in cognitive linguistics.
The core concepts of the theory are explained clearly and without technical jargon and applied to various topics within semantics, syntax, morphology, and phonology. Each chapter includes questions that allow for further exploration of the theory's applications.
