Terms for bodies of water in a posteriori and mixed artificial languages
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
In this paper we look at words for bodies of water (e.g., words for 'lake' and 'river') in a large number of a posteriori and mixed artificial languages. After presenting the data and briefly discussing some of them, we analyze some aspects of them, including which meanings seem to be more basic than others. For example, words meaning 'river' appear to be unmarked with respect to words meaning similar, but smaller, bodies of water (e.g., 'brook'), since some artificial languages derive the latter from the former, but no languages in our sample derive the latter from the former. This sort of analysis can be applied to other semantic fields in artificial languages.
