Ethnopragmatics
Goddard C., Gladkova A., Ye Z., , in: The Routledge Handbook of Language and Culture.: Routledge, 2026. Ch. 7 P. 95–110.
The term ‘ethnopragmatics’ designates an approach to language in use that sees culture as playing a central explanatory role. It is a reconceptualization of the approach to ‘cross‑cultural pragmatics’ inaugurated by Anna Wierzbicka’s (2003 [1991]) ground‑breaking volume of this name. Ethnopragmatics involves a threefold alignment of objectives, methodological tools, and evidence base (Goddard 2006). The ...

Grammar and the Influence of Society and Culture
Gladkova A., , in: The Encyclopedia of Applied Linguistics, 2nd ed.: Wiley-Blackwell, 2026.
This article treats grammar as inseparable from semantics and pragmatics. On the basis of existing studies, it demonstrates that it is possible to identify cultural information or meaning embedded in grammatical structures. Connections between grammar, culture, and society are studied in an emerging area of linguistics known as Ethnosyntax. The term “ethnosyntax” was coined by ...

Measuring the semantic priming effect across many languages
Buchanan E., Cuccolo K., Heyman T. et al., Nature Human Behaviour 2025 Vol. 10 No. 1 P. 182–201
Semantic priming has been studied for nearly 50 years across various experimental manipulations and theoretical frameworks. Although previous studies provide insight into the cognitive underpinnings of semantic representations, they have suffered from small sample sizes and a lack of linguistic and cultural diversity. In this Registered Report, we measured the size and the variability of ...

Textual metaphtonymy as opposed to lexical metaphtonymy
Trofimova N., Pesina S., Vinogradova S. et al., Brazilian Journal of Education, Technology and Society - BRAJETS 2025 Vol. 17 No. 3 P. 126–136
n this article, we have proposed to differentiate textual and lexical metaphtonymy as different phenomena. We have considered the phenomenon of metaphtonymy at the level of text, a chain of words the length of a sentence, a phrase, and a separate meaning. We propose to reserve the term “metaphtonymy” for cases when we are talking ...

Attribution of de re Propositional Attitudes as a Means of Persuasion

By de re propositional attitude ascription for rhetorical purposes we will understand uttering a modal statement wherein the speaker deliberately uses a description of the object of an attitude that is knowingly unavailable for the attitude holder. As the existence of the de re rhetorical statement class is revealed, it gives rise to two questions, which will be the primary concern ...

The article examines Russian verbs of disappearance analyzing their semantic and syntactic properties. These verbs are classified as “underdetermined predicates” similar to verbs of hiding and searching as they do not specify the exact process of disappearance only indicating its result. Unlike verbs of searching and hiding, verbs of disappearance do not describe associated processes ...

The immediate and the naive metaphysics

In this article, I discuss Pirmin Stekeler-Weithofer’s ideas about the nature of language and the metaphysical residue that seems to be present in the realm of immediate experience, despite all the criticism and success of positive knowledge. This includes, first and foremost, the ability to perceive objects, facts, and possible worlds which humans have from ...

The ‘adverb-ly adjective’ construction in English: meanings, distribution and discourse functions
Taboada M., Goddard C., Trnavac R., English Language and Linguistics 2025 Vol. 29 No. 1 P. 102–131
We investigate a class of adjective phrases composed of a deadjectival adverb ending in -ly and an adjective head (e.g. staggeringly incompetent, absolutely terrific, fiscally responsible), a compact construction whereby two adjectives may jointly contribute to evaluative meaning. Using corpus methodologies on more than 1 million examples and relying on semantic analyses of about 1,000 instances, we propose that the ...

О принципах глагольной колексификации

The paper is devoted to the basic principles of verbal colexification defined at the cross-linguistic level. We understand colexification as a non-random association of two or more meanings within one and the same lexical item. We argue that these associations, reproducing in different languages, should follow certain principles and form clear patterns. Drawing on our extensive experience of ...

Не дать эмоциям взять верх: устойчив ли эффект кросс-модального соответствия по отношению к индуцированным эмоциональным состояниям и стратегиям эмоциональной регуляции?

The so-called cross-modal correspondence effect is a special case of multisensory integration; it manifests as faster and more accurate responses to simultaneously presented stimuli of different modalities that are congruent in certain features (e.g., high-pitch sound — high spatial location), as opposed to incongruent ones. This study assessed the extent to which individual emotional characteristics ...

Cross-Cultural Pragmatics
Gladkova A., , in: Oxford Bibliographies in Linguistics.: Oxford University Press, 2023. P. 1–14.
Cross-cultural pragmatics (CCP) is an area of linguistics that studies natural language use in a contrastive perspective accounting for cultural factors. “Natural language” here is interpreted in its relation to culture. By culture, people’s shared ways of living, thinking, feeling, doing things, and speaking are understood. CCP is a relatively recent field in linguistics, and ...
