Action and Language—Action-Based Neurolinguistics Approach ()
ABSTRACT
There are a lot of increasing evidences to support the strong links
between action and language. Action based approach proposed the hierarchical
structure of language based on action control and concerned with action goal,
context, intention, mirror neurons and object affordances. Action semantics
proposed that action control and use of object need not only low-level action
control, but also semantic knowledge. Action Semantics are hierarchically
organized and selectively activated depending on the action intention of the
actor and the context. This framework integrated declarative and procedural
action knowledge, thus challenging the traditional divide between semantics and
pragmatics and they might draw on common representational resources.
